Question

Does App Platform support Next.js redirects through next.config.js?

Asked by Nathan Searles

I’m wondering if App Platform supports Next.js redirects through next.config.js? Or if there is another way to handle SEO friendly permanent redirects through App Platform?

Code example: https://github.com/vercel/next.js/blob/canary/examples/redirects/next.config.js Next.js docs: https://nextjs.org/docs/api-reference/next.config.js/redirects

Thanks!

Hey there!

We don’t currently support arbitrary redirects in App Platform unfortunately. This is something we are looking into. As a work around you could use Nginx in a Dockerfile to proxy those redirects.

A bit more info on this can be found here.

Hope it helps! Nate
