Use the code samples below to configure your server when working with Web. The following samples apply to Nginx, Apache, and IIS servers. For further information on server configuration for the Web platform, see Compressed builds and server configuration.
http {
# ...
server {
# Add the following config within http server configuration
# ...
# On-disk Brotli-precompressed data files should be served with compression enabled:
location ~ .+\.(data|symbols\.json)\.br$ {
# Because this file is already pre-compressed on disk, disable the on-demand compression on it.
# Otherwise nginx would attempt double compression.
gzip off;
add_header Content-Encoding br;
default_type application/octet-stream;
}
# On-disk Brotli-precompressed JavaScript code files:
location ~ .+\.js\.br$ {
gzip off; # Do not attempt dynamic gzip compression on an already compressed file
add_header Content-Encoding br;
default_type application/javascript;
}
# On-disk Brotli-precompressed WebAssembly files:
location ~ .+\.wasm\.br$ {
gzip off; # Do not attempt dynamic gzip compression on an already compressed file
add_header Content-Encoding br;
# Enable streaming WebAssembly compilation by specifying the correct MIME type for
# Wasm files.
default_type application/wasm;
}
# On-disk gzip-precompressed data files should be served with compression enabled:
location ~ .+\.(data|symbols\.json)\.gz$ {
gzip off; # Do not attempt dynamic gzip compression on an already compressed file
add_header Content-Encoding gzip;
default_type application/gzip;
}
# On-disk gzip-precompressed JavaScript code files:
location ~ .+\.js\.gz$ {
gzip off; # Do not attempt dynamic gzip compression on an already compressed file
add_header Content-Encoding gzip; # The correct MIME type here would be application/octet-stream, but due to Safari bug https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=247421, it's preferable to use MIME Type application/gzip instead.

You can configure Web builds in Apache using one of the two methods: Virtual Host in httpd.conf, or .htaccess. Unity recommends configuring a virtual host in Apache’s httpd.conf, if you have access to that configuration.
To configure Web builds using the Virtual Host in httpd.conf method:
<Directory /var/www/html/root/path/to/your/unity/content/>
<IfModule mod_mime.c>
RemoveType .gz
AddEncoding gzip .gz
# The correct MIME type for .data.gz would be application/octet-stream, but due to Safari bug https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=247421, it is preferable to use MIME Type application/gzip instead.
#AddType application/octet-stream .data.gz
AddType application/gzip .data.gz
AddType application/wasm .wasm.gz
AddType application/javascript .js.gz
AddType application/octet-stream .symbols.json.gz
RemoveType .br
AddEncoding br .br
AddType application/octet-stream .data.br
AddType application/wasm .wasm.br
AddType application/javascript .js.br
AddType application/octet-stream .symbols.json.br
</IfModule>
</Directory>
To configure Web builds using the .htaccess method:
If you’re unable to modify httpd.conf, for example, due to unavailable admin rights to your web hosting, but your Apache supports .htaccess, then you can configure .htaccess in the following way:
# This configuration file should be uploaded to the server as "<Application Folder>/Build/.htaccess"
# NOTE: "mod_mime" Apache module must be enabled for this configuration to work.
<IfModule mod_mime.c>
# The following lines are required for builds without decompression fallback, compressed with gzip
RemoveType .gz
AddEncoding gzip .gz
AddType application/gzip .data.gz # The correct MIME type here would be application/octet-stream, but due to Safari bug https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=247421, it's preferable to use MIME Type application/gzip instead.
AddType application/wasm .wasm.gz
AddType application/javascript .js.gz
AddType application/octet-stream .symbols.json.gz
# The following lines are required for builds without decompression fallback, compressed with Brotli
RemoveType .br
RemoveLanguage .br
AddEncoding br .br
AddType application/octet-stream .data.br
AddType application/wasm .wasm.br
AddType application/javascript .js.br
AddType application/octet-stream .symbols.json.br
# The following line improves loading performance for uncompressed builds
AddType application/wasm .wasm
# Uncomment the following line to improve loading performance for gzip-compressed builds with decompression fallback
# AddEncoding gzip .unityweb
# Uncomment the following line to improve loading performance for brotli-compressed builds with decompression fallback
# AddEncoding br .unityweb
</IfModule>
