A more robust alternative is using `contains` or, if a stricter value match is required, configuring a regex pattern that is tolerant of comma-separated values.

+As of Consul v1.20.1, inbound traffic to mesh proxies will have Envoy request [path normalization](https://www.envoyproxy.io/docs/envoy/latest/api-v3/extensions/filters/network/http_connection_manager/v3/http_connection_manager.proto#envoy-v3-api-field-extensions-filters-network-http-connection-manager-v3-httpconnectionmanager-normalize-path) applied by default.

This setting is generally safe to change if not using L7 intentions with path matching.

When performing a [rolling upgrade](/consul/tutorials/datacenter-operations/upgrade-federated-environment#server-rolling-upgrade) and a version of Consul prior to 1.17.x is presented with a token created Consul v1.17.x or newer that contains templated policies, the templated policies field is not recognized.
