    Yes, I checked this link and saw below details-

    Limitations of 301 Redirects in Redirect Map Manager:

    301 Redirect Map is really a cool feature but it has some limitations.

    1. This is one to one mapping and we can not manage a regex here. So if we have 1000 of URL’s need to redirect in a particular pattern you can not manage in Redirect Map. For this, you have to manage it in Apache level. So create a file and add all the regex redirect URL’s like shown below.

    RewriteRule ^/en/index(.*)html$  /en/home.html [R=301,L]

    Include the file in the rewrite file of a particular website.

    but my point here-

    1)- Which file I need to create?

    2)- I have to redirect url that has country code suffix from all the URLs to a URL without country suffix before .html

    content/abc/content/at/de/test/insights/articles/equity/2020/robotics-automation-at.html

    content/abc/content/au/de/test/insights/articles/equity/2020/robotics-automation-au.html

     

    Shall I write a rewrite rule with a single regex in dispatcher file and will it work?

      Hi @anoop345 As mentioned by @siva_sogalapalli - This will help you out by implementing the 301 based redirects using redirect map or vanity redirect.

       Implement Redirects in Dispatcher:

      Implement the 301 based redirects in rewrite file under /etc/httpd/conf.d/rewrites/*

      exmaple:

      RewriteRule  ^/content/abc/content/at/de/test/insights/articles/equity/2020/robotics-automation-at.html https://%{SERVER_NAME}/content/abc/content/at/de/test/insights/articles/equity/2020/robotics-automation.html [R=301,NC,L]

       

      ** {SERVER_NAME} - if you have variable for domain name use this variable or you can use domain name.

      ** Make sure to call this rewrite file in vhost file.

      ** check the syntax - service httpd configtest -> if syntax is OK restart the httpd service.

      ** You can use excel sheet to add 1000 redirects with source/destination path + Redirect flag like below:

      ** To test all the redirects - use macro-script in excel.

       

      Please let us know if you have any issues post implementing the redirect.
