Custom Domain
Configure and verify a branded domain for your survey links
Custom domain settings let you serve survey links on your own domain (for example, surveys.yourcompany.com) instead of the default app host.
Configure Your Domain
- Go to Settings > Custom Domain.
- Enter a fully qualified subdomain, such as
surveys.yourcompany.com. - Click Save Domain.
Saving resets verification until DNS is validated again.
Add DNS Record
Create a CNAME record in your DNS provider:
- Type:
CNAME - Host: your subdomain label (for example
surveys) - Target: your app domain shown on the settings page
- TTL:
3600(or provider default)
Verify DNS
After DNS propagates:
- Return to Settings > Custom Domain.
- Click Verify DNS.
- Confirm status changes to verified.
The verifier checks whether your CNAME target matches the app domain.
Example Link Format
Once verified, survey URLs use:
https://your-custom-domain/s/[survey-id]
Remove a Custom Domain
Clear the domain value and save. This also clears verification metadata.
Troubleshooting
Invalid domain format
Use a valid domain-like value (for example sub.example.com), not a path or protocol URL.
CNAME not found
Wait for DNS propagation and verify the record was created in the correct DNS zone.
Wrong CNAME target
The verifier returns expected and actual targets if they do not match. Update DNS and retry.
