About URL Filter Assign

A URL Filter Assign item looks up the URL filter action for each category that the Category Lookup item found for a request. If any filter action is set to Block, the request is blocked. In a configuration with an SWG subscription, the URL Filter Assign item also uses the analysis from the Response Analytics item, if used, to determine whether to block the request.

By default, the URL Filter Assign item has three branches: Allow, Confirm, and fallback. If the request is not blocked and any filter action is set to Confirm, the per-request policy takes the Confirm branch.

A URL Filter Assign item provides the URL Filter element, with a list of filters from which to select.

Note: A Category Lookup item must precede the URL Filter Assign item.
