Incoming urls matching the path are forwarded to the backend.\n\nFieldDescription backend IngressBackend backend defines the referenced service endpoint to which the traffic will be forwarded to. pathstring path is matched against the path of an incoming request. Currently it can contain characters disallowed from the conventional \"path\" part of a URL as defined by RFC 3986. Paths must begin with a '/' and must be present when using PathType with value \"Exact\" or \"Prefix\". pathType string pathType determines the interpretation of the path matching. PathType can be one of the following values: Exact: Matches the URL path exactly. Prefix: Matches based on a URL path prefix split by '/'. Matching is done on a path element by element basis. A path element refers is the list of labels in the path split by the '/' separator. A request is a match for path p if every p is an element-wise prefix of p of the request path. Note that if the last element of the path is a substring of the last element in request path, it is not a match (e.g. /foo/bar matches /foo/bar/baz, but does not match /foo/barbaz). ImplementationSpecific: Interpretation of the Path matching is up to the IngressClass. Implementations can treat this as a separate PathType or treat it identically to Prefix or Exact path types. Implementations are required to support all path types.Possible enum values: - \"Exact\" matches the URL path exactly and with case sensitivity. - \"ImplementationSpecific\" matching is up to the IngressClass. Implementations can treat this as a separate PathType or treat it identically to Prefix or Exact path types. - \"Prefix\" matches based on a URL path prefix split by '/'. Matching is case sensitive and done on a path element by element basis. A path element refers to the list of labels in the path split by the '/' separator. A request is a match for path p if every p is an element-wise prefix of p of the request path. Note that if the last element of the path is a substring of the last element in request path, it is not a match (e.g. /foo/bar matches /foo/bar/baz, but does not match /foo/barbaz). If multiple matching paths exist in an Ingress spec, the longest matching path is given priority. …\n\nAttribution: Adapted from Kubernetes Documentation under CC-BY-4.0.
