Some pattern examples:

  • /example/t?st - matches /example/test but also /example/tast or /example/txst
  • /example/*.png - matches all .png files directly under /example (does not match /example/path1/test.png)
  • /example/**/test.png - matches all test.png files whose path starts with /example
  • /scim/v2/Users/** - matches the path to any SCIM resource whose resource type endpoint is Users
