Hi team,

I have a requirement. We are maintaining some pages in AEM and some of them in EDS using the universal editor. I need to redirect some pages from EDS to AEM. I noticed that we can create a redirect file at the root level to achieve this, but I don’t have the proper documentation. Could you please share the related document?

Thanks

Hi @kondisr 

Do you need to redirect when editing the page or for end user.

 

For Editing the page, you can create another EDIT button which will open page with universal Editor.

For end user, you need to write rules at CDN to forward traffic to different origins(AEM, EDS etc)

Hi @arunpatidar,

Thanks for the quick response

I need CDN to forward traffic to different origins (AEM, EDS, etc.). Currently, we are migrating a set of sub-pages from AEM to EDS. For this, we have written regex match patterns to route traffic from AEM to EDS

However, we are facing some challenges. In AEM, some pages were created with URLs containing -- and numbers. In EDS, we have removed those characters and created new clean URLs. If a request comes with -- and numbers, those URLs should redirect to the corresponding new page in EDS

Example:

  • In AEM: /events/event-name--12345

  • In EDS: /events/event-name

So if a user tries to access /events/event-name--12345, it should redirect to /events/event-name in EDS.

We have already written regex rules to redirect all subpages to EDS, and once the request reaches EDS, we have redirect to new url in eds. pls suggest any approach.

Thanks.

Hi @kondisr 

You can do redirect, redirect first event-name--12345 to event-name name and then forward request to intended origin.
