Redirect to root with rewrite

Help

:man_facepalming:

No idea why I gave you the escaped version to use. Oh well, small matter.

Turns out, Caddy’s static fileserver is handling the request for /index.html with a permanent redirect to the canonical /, which is how the client should request an index. (more info, I see this is a recent change)

You can fix this by changing your to subdirective:

rewrite {
  if {path} not_starts_with /api
  to {path} {path}/ /
}

I wonder if we will see a few more people pop up with this problem soon, I believe rewriting to a specific index file is quite common.
