Compression

(MI.AllowCompress)

Overview

The Compression feature enables Brotli/GZIP compression at the edge. The compression selection method is determined by the client's Accept-Encoding header.

Example

In the example JSON file, this feature is added to the *.m3u8 path configuration to enable compression of manifest files.
