Open Settings → Sidekick → Domains to control the address people use to reach Sidekick. You can use a managed subdomain with no setup, or point your own domain at Sidekick.

Managed subdomain

By default, Sidekick is served from a subdomain under the Sidekick root domain. There’s nothing to configure: it works as soon as your workspace is created.

Custom domain

To serve Sidekick from a domain your company controls, add the domain and point it at Sidekick with DNS records.
1

Add the domain

In Settings → Sidekick → Domains, enter the domain you want to use.
2

Add the DNS records

Sidekick shows the DNS records to add at your domain provider. Add each one exactly as shown.
3

Verify

Once the records have propagated, select Verify. Sidekick checks that the records resolve correctly before it starts serving traffic on the domain.
DNS changes can take time to propagate. If verification fails right after adding the records, wait and try again before assuming something is wrong.

Delete a domain

Removing a domain stops Sidekick from serving traffic on it. People who try to reach Sidekick at that address afterward won’t reach it; make sure any custom domain is no longer in use before you delete it.
