Project-Level Routing Now Available

Vercel has launched a new feature enabling developers to manage routing rules at the project level without requiring a new deployment. This means you can now update response headers, rewrites, redirects, and other routing logic on the fly—changes take effect instantly after publishing.

How It Works

Project-level routing rules integrate seamlessly into Vercel's existing CDN routing stack. The execution order is:

1. Deployment configuration routes (defined in vercel.json, vercel.ts, or next.config.js)
2. Project-level routes (new feature)
3. Bulk redirects

Access this feature through multiple interfaces:

• Dashboard: New CDN tab in your project settings
• API: Programmatic routing management
• CLI: Command-line configuration
• Vercel SDK: SDK-based management

Key Benefits

• Zero downtime: Update routing logic without redeploying your application
• Flexibility: Adjust response headers, rewrites to external APIs, and redirects on demand
• Universal availability: Project-level routes are available on all Vercel pricing plans, from free tier to Enterprise

Getting Started

Visit the routing documentation or navigate to the CDN tab in your project dashboard to configure your first project-level route.
