Domains
You can customize your App, Tracking, Feed API, Partner Platform, Postback, SQL Studio and Explorer domain with Swaarm.
⚠️IMPORTANT
You can only use domains that you own.
It is advised to not use trackswaarm or anything similar in your custom domain.
How to Setup a Custom Domain
Before you can update the custom application domain setting, you will need to update the DNS for the domain. Add the CNAME to your Swaarm subdomain for your choice of App, Tracking, Feed API, Partner Platform, Postback, SQL Studio or Explorer.
CNAME: lb.internal.swaarm.com
Once the CNAME is set, please enter your custom domain in the field. Once verified you will be able to use that domain. (Verification takes a few minutes to an hour).
Domain Types
You can have up to a max of 5 custom domains per section.
Domain | Type | Example |
App | Host the Swaarm platform on a custom domain. | bestapp.yourcompany.com |
Tracking | Host your tracking URLs on a custom domain. | tracking.yourcompany.com |
Feed API | Host your feed API for your partners to access on a custom domain. | feedapi.yourcompany.com |
Partner Platform | Host your Swaarm Partner Platform on a custom domain. | partners.yourcompany.com |
Postback | Host your postback URLs on a custom domain | postback.yourcompany.com |
SQL Studio | Host your SQL Studio on a custom domain. | sqlstudio.yourcompany.com |
Explorer | Host your data Explorer on a custom domain | explorer.yourcompany.com |
Creatives | Host your creatives on a custom domain | creatives.yourcompany.com |
Subdomains
You can create subdomains typically from wherever you manage your domain. This could be GoDaddy, NameCheap, or any service you use to manage your domain.
Here are links to some external platforms that will help guide you on setting up a subdomain:
Why would you add a subdomain?
Besides the ability to customize your domain with subdomains, such as "track.adnetwork.com" or "postback.adnetwork.com". You may want to add a subdomain to diversify your URLs for external partners.
Tracking Domains per Entity
You can now enable different custom tracking domains per partner or offer. For example you may have your default domain exampledomain.com but for one specific partner you want their tracking links to be under trackingdomain.com. Keep in mind your domains must be verified before setup and as always you must own the domain.
Go to the partner or offer you want to change domains
Click Edit in the top right corner
Go to the Tracking Domains tab
Select the tracking domain you want displayed
Click save
After saving, the Feed API and Push Tool will show the new domain.
Domain Hierarchy
The hierarchy is as follows:
Offer
Partner
Global
This means that if you change a domain for both the specific Offer and Partner, the Offer domain will take priority.
