allow_​cloudlets_​origins

Version: v2025-02-18Includes use: No

Behavior name: Allow Conditional Origins

Allows Cloudlets Origins to determine the criteria, separately from the Property Manager, under which alternate origin definitions are assigned.

This behavior needs to appear alone within its own rule. When enabled, it allows any cloudlets​_origin criteria within sub-rules to override the prevailing origin.

Options

Option Description
enabled
Allows you to assign custom origin definitions referenced in sub-rules by cloudlets​_origin labels. If disabled, all sub-rules are ignored.
honor_​base_​directory
Prefixes any Cloudlet-generated origin path with a path defined by an Origin Base Path behavior. If no path is defined, it has no effect. If another Cloudlet policy already prepends the same Origin Base Path, the path is not duplicated.
purge_​origin_​query_​parameter
When purging content from a Cloudlets Origin, this specifies a query parameter name whose value is the specific named origin to purge. Note that this only applies to content purge requests, for example when using the Content Control Utility API.
