iRule URI rewrites don't always use the correct pool

Hello F5 community! I have created an iRule for specific URI rewrites, but it seems that the requests are not getting directed always to the proper pool. Example: We want www.example.com/api/views...
irule
rewrite

    dra1nbama9e Can you please provide the configuration of your virtual server that this is associated to? My guess currently is that that host was sent to the incorrect pool previously and when the new request came in again for the new path it went to the old pool. You can try configuring a /32 OneConnect profile and configuring it on the virtual server in question to see if that corrects the issue.

Hello Paulius
Thank you for the prompt reply. Indeed I configured a /32 oneconnect profile and now is seems that all the requests are redirected only to the correct pool.
Not sure I understand why though :D !
