# Compress
Compressing the Response before Sending it to the Client
{: .subtitle }
![Compress](../assets/img/middleware/compress.png)
The Compress middleware enables the gzip compression.
## Configuration Examples
??? example "File -- enable gzip compression"
```toml
[Middlewares]
[Middlewares.test-compress.Compress]
```
??? example "Docker -- enable gzip compression"
```yml
a-container:
image: a-container-image
labels:
- "traefik.middlewares.test-compress.compress=true",
```
## Notes
Responses are compressed when:
* The response body is larger than `512` bytes.
* The `Accept-Encoding` request header contains `gzip`.
* The response is not already compressed, i.e. the `Content-Encoding` response header is not already set.
