+Reverse Proxy
+-------------
+
+When running behind a reverse proxy with stripped path prefix, you need to configure your
+application to properly handle this.
+
+Single known path prefix
+''''''''''''''''''''''''
+
+If there is only a single known prefix your application will be running behind, you can simply
+pass this path prefix as the `root_path` to your ASGI server:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+    $ uvicorn run:app --root-path <root_path>
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+    $ gunicorn -k uvicorn.workers.UvicornWorker run:app --root-path <root_path>
+
+
+Dynamic path prefix
+'''''''''''''''''''
+
+If you are running behind multiple proxies, or the path is not known, you can wrap your
+application in a `ReverseProxied` middleware as shown in `this example`_.
