        The path that will be used in the redirect response instead of the one that was supplied in the request. pathRedirect cannot be supplied together with prefixRedirect. Supply one alone or neither. If neither is supplied, the path of the original request will be used for the redirect. The value must be between 1 and 1024 characters.

        The prefix that replaces the prefixMatch specified in the HttpRouteRuleMatch, retaining the remaining portion of the URL before redirecting the request. prefixRedirect cannot be supplied together with pathRedirect. Supply one alone or neither. If neither is supplied, the path of the original request will be used for the redirect. The value must be between 1 and 1024 characters.

        The HTTP Status code to use for this RedirectAction. Supported values are: MOVED_PERMANENTLY_DEFAULT, which is the default value and corresponds to 301. FOUND, which corresponds to 302. SEE_OTHER which corresponds to 303. TEMPORARY_REDIRECT, which corresponds to 307. In this case, the request method will be retained. * PERMANENT_REDIRECT, which corresponds to 308.

        If set to true, any accompanying query portion of the original URL is removed prior to redirecting the request. If set to false, the query portion of the original URL is retained. This field is required to ensure an empty block is not set. The normal default value is false.

    • route_rules list block

      For routeRules within a given pathMatcher, priority determines the order in which load balancer will interpret routeRules. RouteRules are evaluated in order of priority, from the lowest to highest number. The priority of a rule decreases as its number increases (1, 2, 3, N+1). The first rule that matches the request is applied. You cannot configure two or more routeRules with the same priority. Priority for each rule must be set to a number between 0 and 2147483647 inclusive. Priority numbers can have gaps, which enable you to add or remove rules in the future without affecting the rest of the rules. For example, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 9, 12, 16 is a valid series of priority numbers to which you could add rules numbered from 6 to 8, 10 to 11, and 13 to 15 in the future without any impact on existing rules.

If routeAction is additionally specified, advanced routing actions like URL Rewrites, etc. take effect prior to sending the request to the backend. However, if service is specified, routeAction cannot contain any weightedBackendService s. Conversely, if routeAction specifies any weightedBackendServices, service must not be specified. Only one of urlRedirect, service or routeAction.weightedBackendService must be set.

Tips: Best Practices for The Other Google Compute Engine Resources

In addition to the google_compute_disk, Google Compute Engine has the other resources that should be configured for security reasons. Please check some examples of those resources and precautions.

risk-label

google_compute_disk

Ensure the encryption key for your GCE disk is stored securely

It is better to store the encryption key for your GCE disk securely. Secret Manager could be used instead.

risk-label

google_compute_firewall

Ensure your VPC firewall blocks unwanted outbound traffic

It is better to block unwanted outbound traffic not to expose resources in the VPC to unwanted attacks.

risk-label

google_compute_instance

Ensure appropriate service account is assigned to your GCE instance

It is better to create a custom service account for the instance and assign it.

risk-label

google_compute_project_metadata

Ensure OS login for your GCE instances is enabled at project level

It is better to enable OS login for your GCE instances. Enabling OS login ensures that SSH keys used to connect to instances are mapped with IAM users, allowing centralized and automated SSH key management.

risk-label

google_compute_ssl_policy

Ensure to use modern TLS protocols

It's better to adopt TLS v1.2+ instead of outdated TLS protocols.

risk-label

google_compute_subnetwork

Ensure VPC flow logging is enabled

It is better to enable VPC flow logging. VPC flow logging allows us to audit traffic in your network.

Review your Google Compute Engine settings

In addition to the above, there are other security points you should be aware of making sure that your .tf files are protected in Shisho Cloud.

Frequently asked questions

What is Google Compute Engine URL Map?

Google Compute Engine URL Map is a resource for Compute Engine of Google Cloud Platform. Settings can be wrote in Terraform.

Where can I find the example code for the Google Compute Engine URL Map?

For Terraform, the MatthewCYLau/react-serverless-gcp-terraform, kennedycmr/terraform-google-cloudrun-public-byo-domainname and rdeknijf/github-actions-upgrader source code examples are useful. See the Terraform Example section for further details.
