Create Routes

Application developers can easily create a Route for their application in a few minutes using the following steps.

  1. Click Add New HTTPRoute to create a new Route. Our platform will ask you to complete a form.

  1. The form has three sections: General Info (about the namespace, labels, annotations, etc.), Gateway linking (linking to a Listener of a Gateway), and HTTP Rules (conditions to filter traffic and send it to the backend service).

  1. Under the HTTP Rules, engineers need to fill in the following information about Condition (to filter traffic), Action (such as modifying request header, redirect to, URL rewrite, Request mirror), and Destination (backend service name, port, and traffic percentage).

  1. Once the form is completed, saved, and deployed, a new Route resource is created. IMESH API Gateway creates a YAML file and stores it for further reference.

Note: Please let us know on our Slack channel if you have any questions.
