Arguments

Pass a match_rules list with the options that best fit your business case. While the match definitions arguments are optional, expected, at a minimum, is the forward_settings argument.

Use the information in the match options table to build out your rule's matches criteria.

Argument	Required	Description
`forward_settings`	✔	The data used to construct a new request URL if all match conditions are met. When all conditions are met, the edge server returns an HTTP response from the rewritten URL. Contains the origin ID subargument. `origin_id`. A user created ID that represents a data center for an application load balancer implementation. Alphanumeric characters and underscores only, and the first and last characters must be alphanumeric. Note: The application load balancer cloudlet only supports a setting of `APPLICATION_LOAD_BALANCER` in the origin behavior of your property's rules.
`matches_always`		Whether the rule always matches the rule options set.
`name`		A human-readable name for your rule.
`start`		The start time for the match. Value is UTC through seconds.
`end`		The end time for the match. Value is UTC through seconds.
`match_url`		The URL that the cloudlet uses to match with the incoming request.
`disabled`		Whether to disable a rule so it is not evaluated against incoming requests.
`matches`		The match object definitions list.

Match options

The options listed are nested within the matches argument.

All match options are optional.

Argument	Description
`match_type`	The type of match used. Value is one of: `header` `hostname` `path` `extension` `query` `regex` `cookie` `deviceCharacteristics` `clientip` `continent` `countrycode` `regioncode` `protocol` `method` `proxy`
`match_value`	A value that reflects your match type, for example, if you set your match type to `countrycode`, the value would reflect the match country.
`match_operator`	Compares a string expression with a pattern. Value is one of: `contains` `exists` `equals`
`case_sensitive`	Whether the match is case sensitive.
`negate`	Whether to negate the match.
`check_ips`	For `clientip`, `continent`, `countrycode`, `proxy`, and `regioncode` match types, the part of the request to use as the IP address. Value options: `CONNECTING_IP` `XFF_HEADERS` You can use both separated by a space. When both values are included, the connecting IP address is evaluated first.
`object_match_value`	Use when a rule includes more complex match criteria, like multiple value attributes. Value options: `name`. One of `cookie`, `header`, `parameter`, or `query`. `type`. Required. The type of list, either `object` or `simple`. `name_case_sensitive`. Whether the evaluation of the `name` argument is case sensitive. `name_has_wildcard`. Whether the `name` argument includes wildcards. `options`. If you set the `type` argument to `object`, use this to list the values on which to match. `value`. The values in the incoming request on which to match. `value_has_wildcard`. Whether the `value` argument includes wildcards. `value_case_sensitive`. Whether the evaluation of the `value` argument is case sensitive. `value_escaped`. Whether the compared `value` argument can be an escaped form. `value`. If you set the `type` argument to `simple`, provide the values in the incoming request on which to match.

Attributes

Returned is a jsonencoded list of the match rules defined in your query. Set the output type to capture the result based on your need as you use the return in the policy resource.
