I cannot find

You should be able to find the regex matches operator if your Cloudflare Plan is Business or higher.

@sufiyans137

which one to choose

Please describe what you want to accomplish. If you are facing a DDoS where requests are made to random paths with a 22-character string, you will not be able to stop it using regular, non-regex operators.

Instead, you should study your own website’s sitemap and see if it’s possible to include all legitimate paths and managed-challenge all other request.

If incoming requests match…
URI Path is not in {“/” “/path1” “/path2” etc.}
Then
Managed Challenge
