The validator apps[].mappings[].entry_path.enforce_trailing_slashes is disabled by default.

Enforce trailing slashes disabled (default validator)

The default validator forces that both paths either have a trailing slash or that both paths do not have a trailing slash.

Example with trailing slashes:

Entry path: /path/
Back-end path: /back-end/

• ●
  A request to /path/target matches and is forwarded to /back-end/target.
• ●
  A request to /path does not match:
• ●
  If no other mapping matches, this request will return Page Not Found.

Example without trailing slashes:

Entry path: /path
Back-end path: /back-end

• ●
  A request to /path/target matches and is forwarded to /back-end/target.
• ●
  A request to /path does match and is forwarded to /back-end.

Enforce trailing slashes enabled

Example with trailing slashes:

Entry path: /path/
Back-end path: /back-end/

• ●
  A request to /path/target matches and is forwarded to /back-end/target.

Example with trailing slashes:

Entry path: /path
Back-end path: /back-end/

• ●
  The missing trailing slash of /path will lead to a validation error.
