Rewrite location header

Rewrites the “Location” header value of a Site Clipper response.

The Rewrite location header extraction rule rewrites the “Location” header value of a Site Clipper response.
This response header is mostly used to redirect the recipient to a location other than the requested one for completion of the request or identification of a new resource. The extraction rule rewrites this URL in order to access the new location through Convertigo Site Clipper.
The Rewrite location header extraction rule’s behavior depends on the type of URL found in the header. If the URI specified by the location’s value is absolute, two cases are possible:

• if the URI doesn’t match a black listed domain defined in Site Clipper connector, the header value is automatically rewritten,
• else, the header value remains unchanged.

If the URI specified by the location’s value is relative, it is automatically rewritten.
Note: If applicable, location’s URI is rewritten to an absolute value so that next client’s request for the given resource is correctly handled by Convertigo.
