Summary

In September 2022, Cloudflare introduced Single Redirects as a modern replacement for the URL Forwarding feature of Page Rules. Built on top of the Ruleset Engine, this new product offered a powerful syntax and enhanced performance. Today, wildcard support is now available across Cloudflare's Ruleset Engine-based products, including Cache Rules, Compression Rules, Configuration Rules, Custom Errors, Origin Rules, Redirect Rules, Snippets, Transform Rules, Web Application Firewall (WAF), Waiting Room, and more. This enhancement ensures high performance while making it easier to create dynamic and flexible URL patterns and beyond.
