Connect a custom domain

You want your app to be reachable at your own domain (for example app.yourcompany.com) instead of the default <slug>.talkide.app address.

TalkIDE handles the full domain lifecycle: you buy and manage your domains directly inside TalkIDE, not through an external registrar. Once a domain is in your account, attaching it to a project takes a few clicks. TalkIDE configures DNS and provisions the TLS certificate for you.

Before you start

• Your app must be published (not in dev preview). Custom domains apply to the production environment only.
• The domain must already be in your TalkIDE account. If you have not bought it yet, do that first (see step 1 below).

Steps

1. Make sure the domain is in your TalkIDE account

Open the dashboard, click Domains, then View all. If the domain you want is not listed, purchase it there. TalkIDE registers the domain and takes care of DNS hosting on your behalf.

2. Open your project settings

Navigate to the project you want to attach the domain to and open its settings.

3. Select the domain from your list

In the domain settings for the project, open the domain selector. Your TalkIDE-managed domains appear in the list. Pick the one you want to use.

If you want to use a subdomain (for example app.yourcompany.com rather than the bare yourcompany.com), enter the subdomain prefix in the field next to the domain name.

4. Save

Click Save (or the equivalent confirm button). TalkIDE immediately:

• Updates the DNS record for the selected domain to point at your app
• Provisions a TLS certificate so the domain is served over HTTPS

Verify it worked

Visit your domain in a browser. You should see your app loading over HTTPS. The project settings screen also shows a status indicator confirming the domain is active.

Notes

• You can attach multiple domains to the same app.
• The default <slug>.talkide.app address remains active after you add a custom domain.
• All domain management (registration, renewal, DNS) happens inside TalkIDE. You do not need a separate account with any external registrar.
