Redirect subfolders

Hello, How can I write an iRule to do a redirect from F5 to our cloud site(no pool in F5). I need to make sure to redirect top level and also any other folders to exact folder name on cloud.

for example

Top-level redirect

      http://my.x.com => https://cloud.y.com/y/y.do

Article redirect, for any article ID "XXXX"

      http://my.x.com/XXXX => https://cloud.y.com/y/y.do?id=XXXX
application delivery
iRules

    Hi Hajar,

    you may use this snippet as a starting point...

    when HTTP_REQUEST {
    if { [string tolower [HTTP::host]] equals "my.x.com" } then {
        if { [HTTP::uri] equals "/" } then {
            HTTP::redirect "https://cloud.y.com/y/y.do"
        } else {
            HTTP::redirect "https://cloud.y.com/y/y.do?id=[URI::encode [string range [HTTP::uri] 1 end]]"
        }   
    }
}

    Cheers, Kai
