iRule for migrating to Sharepoint Online

Hello,

I'm very new to the F5 platform and creating iRules. I did try searching the forums, and there is a lot of good information (thank you contributors), but can't find a solution to exactly what I need to do.

We are migrating off an on-premise Sharepoint to Sharepoint Online/365. I would like to have an iRule that states:

If you are going to myportal.company.com then redirect to sharepointonline.company.com but if there is anything after the URI then redirect to sharepointonline.company.com/sites/<URI>

For example:

myportal.company.com = sharepointonline.company.com
myportal.company.com/hr = sharepointonline.company.com/sites/hr
myportal.company.com/aa = sharepointonline.company.com/sites/aa

I was hoping not to have to list out every URI, but I didn't know if I could use a wildcard. Any help or pointers would be appreciated

Hi joeinbuffalo,

when HTTP_REQUEST {
  if { [HTTP::host] eq "myportal.company.com" } {
    if { [HTTP::uri] eq "/" } {
      HTTP::redirect "https://sharepointonline.company.com"
      return
    }
    else {
      HTTP::redirect "https://sharepointonline.company.com/sites[HTTP::uri]"
      return
    }
  }
}
