As the title says, I would like an HTTP filter to apply only if the request is for certain URL path. Doing this at the route level is not possible, because my route is defined like this:
- match:
prefix: "/api/"
route:
cluster: some_backend_service
prefix_rewrite: "/"
But I would like to apply different (security related) filters for /api/foo
than for /api/bar
. I can't seem to find a way to do this looking at the documentation, is it even possible? Thanks.
The Composite Filter is exactly what you are looking for. Please refer to this page: https://www.envoyproxy.io/docs/envoy/latest/configuration/http/http_filters/composite_filter.html
