Map a Site URL
Once a site is created and published using Oracle Content Management, you can configure the Domain Name System (DNS) so that this site is accessible with a registered domain name, such as www.mysite.com
A Domain Name System (DNS) specifies where someone can find your web pages by mapping your domain name to your site’s location, or canonical name (CNAME).
- The URL of your Oracle Content Management instance. It’s typically of the following form:
service-tenant.documents.datacenter.oraclecloud.com
- The domain name as registered by your domain name registrar.
For example,
www.example.com
. It could also be a sub-domain, such aswww.example.com/subdomain
. - An account with a content delivery network (CDN) provider. Oracle Content Management provides integration with Akamai. Contact Oracle Support to have Akamai configured for your instance.
If you want to use your own CDN, rather than the Oracle Content Management-provided Akamai, perform the steps below.
Different Domain Name System providers have different web interfaces and different steps for updating a CNAME record. The steps below provide the information you’ll need and the general steps to follow.
To map the site URL to a domain name:
By default, the endpoint for the Oracle Cloud REST API for Content Management is available if you use the standard URL provided for the site. Folder and file list components, for example, use the REST API to perform folder and file operations. If you use a custom URL, verify that you have access to the endpoint with your domain name. For example:
https://www.mysite.com/documents
