Same-Origin Setup

Set up with Azure Front Door


For sites using Azure Front Door as a CDN/reverse proxy, set up Same-Origin by creating a new origin and route in the Azure dashboard.


Step 1. Create an origin

  • In the Azure portal, open the Front Door console and select your configuration.
  • Go to Settings > Origin groups and click Add to create a new origin group.
  • Enter a descriptive name and click Add an origin.
  • Under Origin type, select Custom.
  • In the Host name field, enter your Wascer container domain (for example, sst.yoursite.com.br).
  • Disable Enable health probes.
  • Click Add and wait for processing.


Step 2. Create a route

  • Go to Settings > Front Door manager and expand the endpoint you want.
  • Click Add a route.
  • Define a name for the route and select the correct domain under Domains.
  • In Patterns to match, enter the path you want (e.g., /metrics/*).
  • Select the origin group created in the previous step.
  • Set Origin path to /.
  • Click Add.


Step 3. Configure headers

  • Go to Settings > Rule sets and click Add.
  • Add a condition: Request path Begins with /metrics.
  • Add actions to modify the request header:
  • Header X-From-Cdn with value az-wascer.
  • Save and associate the rule set with the route created earlier.
