Block API address and POST operation

Hey,

I was wondering if the Sophos firewall had the ability to block an API address as well as a specific command. We would like to block the POST command for an API address, but leave the rest open to maintain functionality.

Thanks,
Z

What do you mean by API address? For a web app, this would be a URL. The web filtering component can block by URL strings and regex. If you can create a proper regex to match what you are trying to block, it can do so.

Yeah it's a URL. I'm specifically trying to block https://mix.office.com/api/mylessons for Post on 443. This will prevent Power Point 2013's Office Mix plugin from uploading to Microsoft's cloud since the presentations could contain confidential material.

Could you give me an example of a regex that would do this?

Thanks a bunch
