CDN Redirect Issue

Topic summary

A user is experiencing an unwanted CDN redirect for a text file on their Shopify store. When accessing https://971shop.com/filename.txt, the file automatically redirects to Shopify’s CDN URL (https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0877/2766/9546/files/filename.txt?v=1728016708).

The user wants the file to be accessible directly from their custom domain without the CDN redirect.

A response suggests setting up a custom server as a potential solution, though the discussion appears incomplete and no detailed implementation steps or alternative approaches have been provided yet.

Hi,

I am wondering is there way to make this file open without CDN?

https://971shop.com/filename.txt (I need it to open like this)

It’s redirecting to

https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0877/2766/9546/files/filename.txt?v=1721037068

How can I disable CDN or a specific file?

Hi,

Set up a custom server.
