The following is my next.config.js:

// next.config.js

module.exports = {
  async rewrites() {
    return [
      {
        source: '/results',
        destination: '',
      },
    ];
  },
};

According to Nextjs rewrites documentation (.config.js/rewrites#rewriting-to-an-external-url), upon visiting , the contents of the page should be rewritten with contents of .

However, I end up getting "localhost redirected you too many times".

Any ideas what causes the error?

• javascript
• url-rewriting
• next.js
• backend

• Are you sure the destination is different from your Next.js app URL? – juliomalves Commented Apr 6, 2021 at 14:51
• @juliomalves i have nothing but a homepage at the nextJs app with one big button in the middle there's no other pages created yet – Lamis Abouzina Commented Apr 6, 2021 at 14:54

1 Answer 1

so apparently i only needed a tailing slash at the destination

// next.config.js

module.exports = {
  async rewrites() {
    return [
      {
        source: '/results',
        destination: 'https://mywebsite./results/',
      },
    ];
  },
};
