Get a Route

Route entities define rules to match client requests. Each Route is associated with a Service, and a Service may have multiple Routes associated to it. Every request matching a given Route will be proxied to its associated Service. The combination of Routes and Services (and the separation of concerns between them) offers a powerful routing mechanism with which it is possible to define fine-grained entry-points in Kong leading to different upstream services of your infrastructure. You need at least one matching rule that applies to the protocol being matched by the Route.
