    you can use the ProxyPassV10 irule for this.

     

    your datagroup content would look like this: www.acmecorp.com/api/ api.acmecorp.com/ pool_api_servers

     

    the virtual server's default pool should be the one for the www.acmecorp.com servers and you must use a oneconnect profile in the VS as well.

     

    the proxypass irule will rewrite any request going to www.acmecorp.com/api/XYZ to api.acmecorp.com/XYZ and send it to the pool pool_api_servers proxypass will also take care of the location header in http redirects and rewrite it for you.
