Azure Traffic Manager - External end point for a Static Web App works but not for Rest API. It always returns 404. Does Traffic Manager allows Rest API end points?

Traffice Manager is a DNS-based routing, so probably there is something in between or your static webapp configuration that block your APIs.

2023-10-24T08:50:17.9466667+00:00 Hi Luis, My Static Web app is deployed on premise and I just used the default IIS Website as proof of concept that Traffic Manager works with my current configurations - So this works. However, when I switch the external end points to a REST API(also deployed on premise on IIS) I'm getting 404.

Can you please provide more information on your scenario?
- I take it that you have a IIS service in OnPrem that is a REST API EndPoint.
- You have configured this as the backend of a Traffic Manager.
- And you receive 400 error code.
As stated by Luis Arias, traffic does not pass through Traffic Manager.
- Can you confirm if the backend works without using a Traffic Manager?
- Configure endpoint monitoring and make sure the backend is actually responding to the health probe
- Check the Endpoint status by endpoint
- Make sure the backend is 1 and not 0
Cheers,
Kapil
