# Create Pipeline URLs

Create up to 500 alias for URLs generated by a B2C Commerce pipeline.

Use the "/" character to create pipeline aliases with multiple path elements, such as _customer/account_ or _consumers/cart._ In the New Alias field, enter for example, consumers/cart for the Cart-Show pipeline, which results in `…/us/consumers/cart` if this pipeline is called and the locale mapping for the chosen locale is _us._

You can't use reserved keywords for pipeline aliases.

![Note](https://sf-zdocs-cdn-prod.zoominsoftware.com/tdta-cc-b2c_merchandiser_administrator-264-0-0-production-enus/ea76f372-6cfa-42a6-8e7c-05c6df7abed8/images/icon_note.png)

Note Reserved keywords include: `dw`, `_dw`, `h`, `_h`, `n`, `_n`, and `s`.

B2C Commerce reserves `s` for site-path mapping. Don't use `s` as a pipeline alias or as the first path element in a URL, such as `www.my-host.com/s/brand/blue`.

See [Configuring SEO URLs](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=cc.b2c_configuring_seo_urls.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5 "Optimizing site URLs for search engines improves user experience, rankings, linking functionality, and greatly increases site traffic.").

URLs created for the `Search-Show` pipeline without a category ID and search refinements are supported for search refinement URLs, for example `search/abrand/blue`. This functionality is also available for the `Search-ShowContent` pipeline, for example `searchcontent/history`.

Exclude the pipeline alias `Search-Show` (or `Search-ShowContent`) from the URL path when no category (or folder) ID is available. This enables you to create URLs such as `www.my-host.com/brand/black|blue/` instead of `www.my-host.com/search/brand/black|blue/`.

See [Using the SEO URLs Settings Tab](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=cc.b2c_using_the_seo_urls_settings_tab.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5 "Use this B2C Commerce tab to configure locale mappings, character replacements, and search refinement settings.").

1. Click App Launcher ![App Launcher](https://sf-zdocs-cdn-prod.zoominsoftware.com/tdta-cc-b2c_merchandiser_administrator-264-0-0-production-enus/ea76f372-6cfa-42a6-8e7c-05c6df7abed8/cc/b2c_merchandiser_administrator/images/appLauncher.png), and then select **Merchant Tools** | **Site** | **SEO & Discoverability** | **URL Rules**.
    
    If you see the Search Support Preferences page instead of the URL Rules page General tab, select **Merchant Tools** | **Site** | **Site Preferences** | **Storefront URLs**, to enable the URL Rules module.
2. Click the **Pipeline URLs** tab.
3. Enable **Append Trailing Slash to Pipeline URLs** if you want the trailing slash to appear when an alias is provided with a slash.
    
    Configure this whether an automatic redirect occurs or not. The trailing slash and automatic redirect is disabled by default.
4. Enable **Perform automatic redirect** if you want to automatically redirect requests to the desired trailing slash configuration.
5. On Pipeline URLs tab, select a locale from the Locale list.
    
    The list shows all of the locales configured in **Administration** | **Global Preferences** | **Locales**. Make sure that if you create aliases for a locale, that these aliases are also selected for the site in **Merchant Tools** | **Site** | **Site Preferences** | **Locales**.
    
    When you have selected a locale, all of the aliases you create are used for that locale. See [SEO URLs Settings Tab](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=cc.b2c_using_the_seo_urls_settings_tab.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5 "Use this B2C Commerce tab to configure locale mappings, character replacements, and search refinement settings.").
    
    If an incoming URL includes a locale that Salesforce B2C Commerce can't identify, such as `de_DE`, then Salesforce B2C Commerce uses the locale `de` if it exists, and the `default` locale if it does not. Any pipeline aliases created prior to Release 14.8 are treated as aliases for the `default` locale.
6. Enter the pipeline-subpipeline or the pipeline alias that you want to create in the Alias or Pipeline fields, to make sure the alias that you want to create doesn't exist.
7. Enter a term to represent the pipeline in the URL into the New Alias field. For example, if you want the URL `hostnamealias/s/sitename/Home-Show` to appear as `hostnamealias/s/sitename/home`, enter home.
8. Enter the pipeline-subpipeline that you want to create an alias for into the resolves to field. For example, Home-Show.
9. Click **Apply**.
