I currently have the following environment: two App Services for Container, which are two Web APIs deployed with the default domain (azurewebsites) and public access that currently work well, example:

• Swagger documentation endpoint: ...azurewebsites/swagger/index.html
• Business logic endpoints like: ...azurewebsites/api/users/select)

Now I need to access them using Application Gateway with a result like the following:

• https://< public-ip-app-gateway >/api1/swagger/index.html
• https://< public-ip-app-gateway >/api2/swagger/index.html

that is, according to a path the App Gateway redirects me to the corresponding Web API and I can use the endpoints, this with the goal in the end that the Web APIs do not remain public

I followed the documentation to configure App Service with App Gateway and App Gateway with path-based routing rules but when I finish the steps and access the URLs I get a 404 Not Found

I would appreciate any additional information that I should take into account or that I am missing to carry out this configuration.

• Daniel Cuellar what does your azure app service log stream show? – Sirra Sneha Commented Feb 19 at 9:23

Make sure both App Services are correctly added to the Backend Pool in Application Gateway like below.

As you have two App service, use path-based routing rules as shown below.

Rules-> Add multiple targets to create path-based rule -> Configure the Details ->Save.

Please refer this MS Documentation for better understanding about path-based routing.

• As Azure Web Apps uses HTTPS, ensure Application Gateway Backend Settings also use HTTPS.

To know whether backend services are working fine or not, set up a Custom health probe in azure Application Gateway.

• If the configured health probe receives a 200 OK response, Application Gateway routes traffic to that backend.
