baseDirectory

Property Manager name: Origin Base Path
Behavior version: The latest rule format supports the baseDirectory behavior v1.1.
Rule format status: Beta, possible breaking changes
Access: Read-write
Allowed in includes: Not available for latest rule format

Prefix URLs sent to the origin with a base path.

For example, with an origin of example.com, setting the value to /images sets the origin's base path to example.com/images. Any request for a my_pics/home.jpg file resolves on the origin server to example.com/images/my_pics/home.jpg.

Note:

- Changing the origin's base path also changes the cache key, which makes any existing cached data inaccessible. This causes a spike in traffic to your origin until the cache repopulates with fresh content.
- You can't override the base path with other behaviors. For example, if in the [`rewriteUrl`](#) behavior you specify `targetPath` to `/gifs/hello.gif`, this gets appended to the base path: `example.com/images/gifs/hello.gif`.
