Path and pathType

path

pathType

pathType defines what calls will be matched by this rule and we can choose between 3 options:

Exact

This matches the exact URL

Prefix

This matches an URL that starts with the configured path using / as separator of subpaths

This example matches /path/subpath, /path/subpath/another1, /path/subpath/another2 but not /path/subpathanother3

path: /path/subpath 
pathType: Prefix

ImplementationSpecific

This leaves the path matching to the ingress controller. Depending of the ingress controller, it can treat it as Prefix or Exact This path type provides flexibility for Ingress controllers to implement custom path-matching rules that may not conform to the standard Exact or Prefix types. In the other hand, the same ingress resource is not guaranteed to be consistent across different controllers.
