How to redirect web service URLS using nginxfrom internal to the URL

Hi,

Hoping someone is able to provide some assistance or recommendations here.

We are wanting to make API calls from an internal network URL and have it automatically redirect to the a cloud app URL.

The redirection works seemlessly on the browser level as there is a user proxy which manages it, however when trying to make a call outside the browser such as postman/soapui it won't connect.

The idea is to be able to maintain the old URL that interface calls go to such as:

https://interfaces.companyname.com/api/table/flash

and it translates to

https://companyname.vendorcompany-now.com/api/table/flash

Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated!



Thanks!
