Hi all,

We have a website hosted on Azure app services, which is using scale-out. The backend is on a separate app service as per the recommendations for flexible load balancing:

https://our.umbraco.com/documentation/getting-started/setup/server-setup/load-balancing/flexible

I am trying to implement 302 redirects so that users are redirected if they try to go to e.g:

www.frontendsite.com/umbraco

And are forced to the backend server instead for editing. I'm testing in our development environment, and trying to ensure that it doesn't interfere with e.g. surface controllers etc.

So I was wondering if anybody had a standard redirect to use in the web.config? This is what I have at the moment, which seems to cover most cases, I'm just worried there might be something I've missed (like a package/plugin URL)....

<!--Redirects to force editing to a single backoffice-->
<rewrite>
  <rules>
    <rule name="Editing" stopProcessing="true" >
      <match url="(.*)" ignoreCase="true" />
      <conditions>
        <add input="{URL}" pattern="/umbraco(.*)" />
        <add input="{HTTP_HOST}" pattern="editing-site.azurewebsites.net" negate="true" />
        <add input="{URL}" pattern="/umbraco/surface(.*)" negate="true" />
        <add input="{URL}" pattern="/umbraco/rendermvc(.*)" negate="true" />
        <add input="{URL}" pattern="/umbraco/api(.*)" negate="true" />
        <add input="{URL}" pattern="/umbraco/backoffice/api(.*)" negate="true" />
      </conditions>
      <action type="Redirect" url="https://editng-site.azurewebsites.net/Umbraco" redirectType="Found"/>
    </rule>
  </rules>
</rewrite>

Any help gratefully received, as always! (I've read the MS article on Redirect rules and the "10 useful redirects" article, it just seems like this should be a standard thing as it must be quite common)?
