Hi @gatsby 

1.Enable the mod_rewrite module in Apache.

2.Add the following rewrite rule to your Apache configuration file:

RewriteEngine On

RewriteRule ^/ca/en/global/search-results/rootpath=(.*)$ /content/mysite/home/ca/en/global/search-results.html?rootpath=$1 [L]

This rule will match any URL that starts with /ca/en/global/search-results/rootpath= and capture the value of rootpath as a group. It will then rewrite the URL to the original URL with the rootpath parameter set to the captured value.

3.Restart Apache to apply the changes.

    ## check if there is a rootpath query param with request
    RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^rootpath=(.*)$
    ## rewrite the path with 302 redirect. If you don't want user to see the redirect, change R=302 with PT
RewriteRule ^/content/mysite/home/ca/en/global/search-results\.html$ /ca/en/global/search-results/rootpath/%1 [R=302,L] ## %1 captures the value of the query string. If you don't need it just replace it with "test" as per your usecase. 

     

    Thanks,

        @gatsby  Is not the URL path not matching with the "/content/mysite/home/ca/en/global/search-results.html"?

        Please check the Request URL path and update the RewriteRule to match with the path.

            @gatsby 

            You can use QSD flag in rewrite rule to achieve this

              Hi @gatsby 
              You can try with below

               

              RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/content/mysite/home/ca/en/global/search-results\.html$ RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^rootpath=([^&]+)&param=(.*)$ RewriteRule ^/content/mysite/home/ca/en/global/search-results\.html$ /%1/%2? [R=301,L]

               

              Test Link

                @arunpatidar @amanath_ullah There is 404 after using below rule

                RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^rootpath=([^&]+)&param=(.*)$
                RewriteRule ^(.*) %1/%2 [R=302,L,QSD]
