Hi,  
After reviewing the docs, I haven’t seen any way to set the value for

`regex_priority`

I think that it’s for adding weight to the matching regex

Kind regards  
Cayetano

Hi,

Good point! Thank you for telling us 🙂

I have created an issue on our documentation repository:

> <https://github.com/Kong/docs.konghq.com/issues/931>

We will address it as soon as we can.

If you wish, you are welcome to tackle it yourself (or any other by-passer who happens to read this). It is [Hacktoberfest](https://hacktoberfest.digitalocean.com/) after all 🙂 A good place to start contributing to the documentation is [here](https://github.com/Kong/docs.konghq.com/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md).

Best,
