My company recently upgraded to Kong Enterprise 0.33; previously we were using Kong 0.12, so as part of the migration we switched to services and routes. We use path prefixes for routing, so each service is “namespaced” by a path prefix (e.g., /my-service), and each route for that service uses the p…

Hello @alexashley , Thank you for explaining your case in detail. It seems like this is a special endpoint and request-transformer-advanced plugin seems to be the right solution to the problem. I see in the original post that you’re only seeking a better way to accomplish this but there doesn’t exi…

For me, this raises questions about what the recommended practice is for breaking up path components between the Kong Services and their Routes. For example, if I have routes in my API which all begin with a version like example.com/v2/contacts should I put the /v2/ bit of the path in the Service? W…

Hello @alexashley , I might be understanding you wrong but could you not simply create a service and then a route under the service as follows? Service: { "connect_timeout": 60000, "created_at": 1538032915, "host": "my-service.internal", "id": "cd3ca8a5-4c26-4af4-8f75-8714ecde97e0"…

Yes, I believe strip_path would work for the a route like /my-service, but I’m a little confused on the best way to tie multiple routes to a single service. A root path like /my-service with strip_path set to true results in an upstream request with a path of /, and isn’t the same true for a path li…

[image] alexashley: A root path like /my-service with strip_path set to true results in an upstream request with a path of / , and isn’t the same true for a path like /my-service/foobar ? No, that’s exactly the point of strip_path in Routes. If your route has /my-service in the paths propert…

@hbagdi Thanks for your help. I reviewed the documentation, but I don’t think I was clear earlier with my exact problem. Here’s a full example of what I’m trying to achieve: Create a service backed by Mockbin: curl -X POST ${KONG_API_URL}/services -d name=mockbin-service -d url=https://mockbin.or…

Yeah, this a bit of a special case, there are only two endpoints we’re exposing like this. Thanks for the help @hbagdi !

@alexashley As it’s currently not easily achievable with Kong. I’ve requested a new feature, please vote/like it so we get Kong’s attention :wink: Strip part of URI

@embdo Had the same issue, since Kong does not natively support this, I described the workaround I used here: Strip part of URI - #10 by rsemlal.tas
