Add custom URL categories to subject URLs that are not part of predefined categories to secure access rules.

Custom URL categories can be applied to the following rules and settings:

Risk rules
Internet Access rules
HTTPS inspection rules
Bandwidth control rules
Outbound static IP settings

Note

The following table outlines the actions available on the Custom URL Categories tab (Zero Trust Secure Access → Secure Access Resources → Custom URL Categories).

Add a custom URL category

On the Custom URL Categories tab, and click Add.
