Stripping out select querystring attribute/value pairs so varnish will not vary cache by them

Question

My goal is to \"whitelist\" certain querystring attributes and their values so varnish will not vary cache between the urls.

Example:

Url 1: http:/         


        

Answer 1

You want to strip out utm_code but it's not covered by either of the regexps you are using.

Try this:

# Strip out specific utm_ values from request URL query parameters
set req.url = regsuball(req.url, "([\?|&])utm_(campaign|content|medium|source|term|code)=[^&\s]*&?", "\1");
# get rid of trailing & or ?
set req.url = regsuball(req.url, "[\?|&]+$", "");

Or if you want to strip all URL parameters that start with utm_ you can go with:

# Strip out ALL utm_ values from request URL query parameters
set req.url = regsuball(req.url, "([\?|&])utm_(\w+)=[^&\s]*&?", "\1");
# get rid of trailing & or ?
set req.url = regsuball(req.url, "[\?|&]+$", "");
