Configure HTTP to HTTPS redirection using the Azure portal

Important

Azure Front Door (classic) will be retired on March 31, 2027. To avoid any service disruption, it is important that you migrate your Azure Front Door (classic) profiles to Azure Front Door Standard or Premium tier by March 2027. For more information, see Azure Front Door (classic) retirement.

This guide explains how to redirect traffic from HTTP to HTTPS for an Azure Front Door (classic) profile using the Azure portal. This setup ensures that all traffic to your domain is securely redirected to HTTPS.

Prerequisites

Create HTTP to HTTPS redirect rule

  1. Sign in to the Azure portal.

  2. Navigate to the Azure Front Door (classic) profile you want to configure. Select Front Door designer under Settings in the left-hand menu.

  3. Select the + icon under Routing rules to create a new route. Name the route, for example, HttpToHttpsRedirect, and set the Accepted Protocol to HTTP only. Choose the Frontend/domains you want to redirect from HTTP to HTTPS.

  5. Select Add to create the routing rule for HTTP to HTTPS redirection.

Create forwarding rule

  1. Add another routing rule for handling HTTPS traffic. Select the + icon under Routing rules to add a new route. Name the route, for example, DefaultForwardingRoute, and set the Accepted Protocols to HTTPS only. Select the appropriate Frontend/domains for accepting this traffic.

  2. In the Route Details section, set the Route Type to Forward. Choose a backend pool to forward the traffic to and set the Forwarding Protocol to HTTPS only.

Creating this redirect rule will incur a small charge.
