The URL Rewriting Policy is used to re-write responses from the backend API such as they will be modified by fixing up any incorrect URLs found with modified ones. As the API Management works through an API gateway, in some cases an API might return URLs to followup action or data endpoints. In these cases the backend API will likely be configured to return a URL pointing to the unmanaged API endpoint. This policy can fix up those URL references so that they point to the managed API endpoint instead.
This policy cannot be used for any other replacements besides URLs. The policy is implemented specifically to find and replace valid URLs.
