Ocelot json Help needed

Hi guys, I'm working on a project using Microservices architecture, as you know with Microservices mostly we need an Api Gateway, I use Ocelot for that purpose. I have the following ocelot.json:

{
    "Routes": [
        {
            "DownstreamPathTemplate" : "/api/Categories",
            "DownstreamHostAndPorts":[
                {
                    "Host": "localhost",
                    "Port": 5196,
                    "Scheme": "http"
                }
            ],
            "UpstreamPathTemplate": "/ExpenseService/api/Categories"
        }
    ]
}

{
    "Routes": [
        {
            "DownstreamPathTemplate" : "/api/Categories",
            "DownstreamHostAndPorts":[
                {
                    "Host": "localhost",
                    "Port": 5196,
                    "Scheme": "http"
                }
            ],
            "UpstreamPathTemplate": "/ExpenseService/api/Categories"
        }
    ]
}

The issue: The issue is the categories controller will contains many actions, so I think that maybe the Ocelot has a feature to tell it to automatically re-route /ExpenseService/api/Categories/{verb} to /api/Categories/{verb}. I have tried /ExpenseService/api/Categories/{everything} to /api/Categories/{everything}, but not working. Please is there any feature or a way to achieve that ?? Massive thanks in advance <3

https://ocelot.readthedocs.io/en/latest/features/routing.html#id1 Although, I'd recommend to stop using Ocelot and switch to YARP. We tried for about a year to make Ocelot work in our use case (api gateway for a mobile payment app) but it's just full of bugs and annoyances and there is literally no support.
