Traffic Policy Overview

The ngrok engine enables you to manage traffic consistently across your endpoints. It allows you to inspect, manipulate, and route traffic in a structured way.

Traffic Policy is composed of a few key components:

• Phases: Defined points in the traffic lifecycle where you can apply logic.
• Phase Rules: The set of conditions and actions applied during specific phases to filter, manipulate, or manage traffic.
• Expressions: Conditions used in Phase Rules to determine when an action should be applied.
• Actions: Logic that is triggered when a Phase Rule condition is met.
• Interpolation: A way to dynamically evaluate variables and macros inside configuration values, such as URLs or headers.

By combining these components, Traffic Policy provides a powerful way to control your traffic flow at a fine-grained level.
