Use Nginx rate limit and keep query string intact












0















I'm trying to set up Nginx rate limiting on a url for an api route.
However, the query strings associated with it are being deleted by the rate limiting.
The rate limiting is working, it's just that the query string is being removed and we need the query string information to be passed through.



The URL I'm trying to rate limit looks like this:



http://example.com/api/2?param1=true&param2=false



But once it goes through the rate limiting config on nginx the url then looks like this:



http://example.com/api/2



and we lose the information off the end



the nginx config is currently this:



location ~ /api/2$ {
limit_req zone=zone1;
}


Is there any reason why nginx rate limiting is doing this or is there something wrong with my config that could be causing this?



Any help is greatly appreciated, Many thanks in advance
