IIS URL Rewrite for Laravel Application Not working for multiple URI Segments

Question

I am having a scenario that if URL doesn't contain anything in URI segment then no need to rewrite to index.php but if contains then rewrite it.

For Example: http://www.example.com/ or http://www.example.com No Rewrite Rule Required

But if URL is http://www.example.com/homepage or http://www.example.com/user/1 or http://www.example.com/edit-user/123/456 then it should be rewrite to index.php

I tried below.

<rules>
    <rule name="custom rule 1" stopProcessing="true">
    <match url="^([^/]+)/?$"  />
    <action type="Rewrite" url="index.php"  />
</rule>

It is working for http://www.example.com/ and http://www.example.com/homepage but showing 404 for others pages.

The URI segments are dynamic and it can be multilingual.

You can try this, it will match all kinds of URIs whether dynamic or multilingual.

 <rule name="custom rule">
                    <match url=".*" />
                    <action type="Rewrite" url="index.php" />
                    <conditions>
                        <add input="{REQUEST_URI}" pattern=".*" />
                   </conditions>
                </rule>

If this rule is only used for some URIs like user or edit-user, maybe this rule is more suitable.

<rule name="custom rule">
                <match url=".*" />
                <action type="Rewrite" url="index.php" />
                <conditions logicalGrouping="MatchAny">
                    <add input="{REQUEST_URI}" pattern="user/(.*)" />
                    <add input="{REQUEST_URI}" pattern="edit-user/(.*)" />
                </conditions>
            </rule>
