    The "!" (not) operation needs to negate the statement "uri equals something". Put the statement in parentheses with the "!" outside as follows: { !([HTTP::uri] equals "/about-*****/investor-relations") }

     

    Also, try contains "investor-relations"

     

    OR

     

    matches_glob "/about-*/investor-relations"

     

    "equals" expects the literal "*" character

Hi Jeff, Thanks for the help. I tested adding the parentheses with the test vip and what you suggested works! I'm waiting on approvals to try it on the production vip again, will update as soon as that works too.

 

have a good day!
