Creating CRM Software Domain Name Using Salesforce.com My Domain
Posted by Jay Rivard on Fri, Jun 11, 2010
Using My Domain, your organization can select a custom Salesforce.com domain name that highlights your brand, or a different term that represents your business. Using a custom domain name provides other important advantages, such as increased security and better support for single sign-on.
Your domain name will use the standard URL format, including:
- The protocol: https://
- The subdomain prefix: your brand or term
- The domain: my.salesforce.com
For example, the login URL for a company called Universal Containers would be: https://universalcontainers.my.salesforce.com/. You can use up to 40 characters.
It's a snap to set up a custom domain name. After you decide on the name or term you want to use, My Domain checks to make sure your subdomain is available. Then it registers the domain name and publishes it to the internet. After a brief period, you'll receive an email to let you know your new domain name is ready for testing. Log in using the new URL and test the URLs for other pages in the application.
Please note: My Domain is currently available through a limited release program. All customers can select and register a domain name, but some customers will be required to wait for permission from salesforce.com before they can roll it out to users.
