Dynamic Route Patterns

Workspace Overview Sections

/web/workspaces/{workspace}/namespaces/{namespace}/overview/{section}

Variables: - workspace: web-app-and-api-protection, multi-cloud-network-connect - namespace: user-defined - section: security, performance, summary

Load Balancer Pages

/web/workspaces/{workspace}/namespaces/{namespace}/manage/load_balancers/{lb_type}

Variables: - lb_type: http_loadbalancers, tcp_loadbalancers, origin_pools, health_checks

Resource Management

/web/workspaces/{workspace}/namespaces/{namespace}/manage/{resource_type}

Variables: - resource_type: app_firewall, rate_limiter_policies, public_ip, etc.

Create/Edit Forms

/web/workspaces/{workspace}/namespaces/{namespace}/manage/{resource_type}/{action}

Variables: - action: create, edit

Using the Sitemap

Direct Navigation

sitemap = load_json("url-sitemap.json")

# Use workspace shortcut
waap_path = sitemap["workspace_mapping"]["waap"]
# -> "/web/workspaces/web-app-and-api-protection"

# Use resource shortcut (with namespace)
http_lb_path = sitemap["resource_shortcuts"]["http-lb"].replace("{namespace}", "default")

Building Dynamic URLs

def build_url(pattern: str, **kwargs) -> str:
    url = pattern
    for key, value in kwargs.items():
        url = url.replace(f"{{{key}}}", value)
    return url

# Example
url = build_url(
    "/web/workspaces/{workspace}/namespaces/{namespace}/manage/load_balancers/{lb_type}",
    workspace="web-app-and-api-protection",
    namespace="production",
    lb_type="http_loadbalancers"
)
