The payload for configuring web content filters.
URLs are matched by using string-based root matching. A URL matches an allow list, deny list, or permitted list pattern if the exact characters of the pattern appear as the root of the URL. For example, if test.com/a isn’t allowed, then test.com, test.com/b, and test.com/c/d/e will all be blocked. Matching also discards subdomain prefixes, so if test.com/a isn’t allowed, m.test.com is also blocked.
