we have been successfully hosting an angular 6 app internally within our organization. Now we need to host the app using NginX RP for external customers to access it. For some reason, we do not have control over the URL that NginX assigns to our app. It has assigned us a URL https://ourdomain.com/somename . Now the issue is that NginX looks for a folder with name 'somename' inside the /dist folder of our angular app, which does not exist. We have tried placing the entire app inside /dist/somename/ but it did not work. We have also tried setting baseURL of the angular app to /somename/ but it did not work as well. What would be an efficient way to workaround this issue and how to achieve it? Note that we do not have control over the URL it has assigned to our app.

Following is the nginx.conf we are using
