: How to forward URL to a different one? Is there any way to forward or shorten (example): example.this.com/123/ABC to example.this.com/ABC CName doesn't cut it, and I am not sure how

@Gloria169

I realize now that this is a wrong category but I have to post that I managed to write this and I want to share to help anyone else with the same problem.

I used URL Rewrite, which you can download and install on your IIS: Video- What is URL Rewrite



Requested URL: Matches Pattern

Using: Regular Expressions

Pattern: ^([_0-9a-z-]+.aspx)

Let me explain what this means:
^ is anything before,
[_0-9a-z-] is any character or number
.aspx is not a pattern, this are those exact characters

Ignore case: checked

Action Type: rewrite

Rewrite URL: example.this.com/ABC.aspx (I oversimplified my example this is truly what I needed it for)

Append query string: checked
