Pages has a nifty feature to allow you to access the most recently build on any branch, which is called a Branch Alias. To use it, take the branch name, and add your Pages.dev domain to the end. For example, if the branch you want to access is

development

development

, and your Pages.dev domain is project.pages.devproject.pages.dev, your Branch Alias would be development.project.pages.devdevelopment.project.pages.dev.

Is there anyway to enable wildcard access policy on pages? I want to enable access policy if users entering the website using <app>.pages.dev subdomain instead of the custom domain.

Many years have passed but the pages subdomain access policy cannot fit into one access application

It can...?

itsmatteomanf

itsmatteomanf•6/17/23, 12:13 PM

It's recent, but it's doable.

itsmatteomanf•6/17/23, 12:13 PM

They tell you to split, but it's docs not being updated.

itsmatteomanf•6/17/23, 12:13 PM

(Might also be that the support for multi-hostname Access policies is not 100% rolled out)

I have tried it before reading the doc so I came here with a question why it can't

itsmatteomanf

I

itsmatteomanf•6/17/23, 12:15 PM

I have done one last night, I'm 100% sure it can work. But might not be on 100% of accounts or there might be limits on Access plan types.

Yeah, I'm not on free, but I was pretty sure it was free as Walshy is saying.

There should be a "add new domain" text just under the domain field of the policy.

Yeah, I tried it but nothing changed.

You have most likely configured it wrong. Can you share a screenshot of the policy?

But after I'm clicking save everything back to default which has only *.xxx.pages.dev

itsmatteomanf

I

itsmatteomanf•6/17/23, 12:23 PM

That is correct...

itsmatteomanf

I

itsmatteomanf•6/17/23, 12:23 PM

It shouldn't go back to just one

0x221A•6/17/23, 12:24 PM

Even though I tried to add a custom domain. But it still goes back to default.

Or because I'm using access free plan?

itsmatteomanf•6/17/23, 12:34 PM

Unfortunately that I don't know... and it's the weekend, so I can't ask anybody.
