Postal Code

Category: Location

Purpose: Identifies requests by the postal code from which the request was issued.

Key information:

• Specify a postal code as an integer value.
• Specify multiple postal codes by delimiting each one with a single space.
• A comparison will only be performed against the first 3 characters for Canadian postal codes.
• A comparison will only be performed against the first 2 - 4 characters for United Kingdom postal codes.
• Wildcards are not supported when specifying a postal code.
• Certain requests may not return a valid postal code. A question mark (i.e., ?) will match requests for which a valid postal code could not be determined.

• The Result option determines when this condition will be met.

  • Match: This condition is satisfied when the request originates from one of the specified postal codes.
  • Does Not Match: This condition is satisfied when the request does not originate from one of the specified postal codes.

• Due to the manner in which cache settings are tracked, this match condition is incompatible with the following features:

  • Default Internal Max-Age
  • Force Internal Max-Age
  • Ignore Origin No-Cache
  • Internal Max-Stale
