Hi SK74,

class match filter should be in brackets like this.

    when HTTP_RESPONSE {
        if { ( [HTTP::header exists Location] ) and ( [HTTP::header Location] contains "http://" ) and ( [ class match [HTTP::header Location] contains ssl-domain-data-group ] ) } {
            HTTP::header replace [string map -nocase {"http://" "https://"} [HTTP::header Location]]
        }
    }

Also you can try the below one:

    when HTTP_RESPONSE {
        if { [HTTP::header exists Location] } {
           set location_info [HTTP::header Location]
           if { ( $location_info contains "http://" ) and ( [class match $location_info contains ssl-domain-data-group ] ) } {
               HTTP::header replace [string map -nocase {"http://" "https://"} $location_info]]
           }
        }
    }

Problem solved! Thanks for the help, really appreciate it. Need to add "Location" before replace to correctly modify the HTTP header.

when HTTP_RESPONSE {
    if { ( [HTTP::header exists Location] ) and ( [HTTP::header Location] contains "http://" ) and ( [ class match [HTTP::header Location] contains ssl-domain-data-group ] ) } {
        HTTP::header Location replace [string map -nocase {"http://" "https://"} [HTTP::header Location]]
    }
}
