Configure Domain Settings

You can specify a friendly management domain to make it easier for your users to access your Oracle Content Management web client, the desktop app, and the mobile apps. When you define a friendly management domain, users will still be able to access the web client using the original URL, but will be redirected to your friendly management domain automatically.

Before you can make use of the friendly management domain, you must set up your domain, CDN, and DNS. Then you can configure domain settings.

  1. After you sign in to the Oracle Content Management web application as a service administrator, click System in the Administration area of the navigation menu.

  2. In the System Settings drop-down menu, choose Domain.
  3. In the Friendly Management Domain box, enter the URL (for example, content.example.com) you want users to use to access Oracle Content Management.
  4. It can take up to 30 minutes for Oracle Content Management to make the necessary back-end changes. During this time you won't be able to edit the setting, but users can continue to access your instance on the original domain. You must complete the next step before your friendly management domain will be available to users.
  5. When the process has completed, you'll receive an email notification with the status of the change.

    If the change was successful, the email will include a link to confirm that the redirect to the friendly management domain works as expected. You must validate the domain within 60 minutes or the change will be reverted. Once you validate the domain, Oracle Content Management will send an email to all users informing them that they can access your instance through the new friendly management domain.

    If the change wasn't successful or doesn't work as expected, you can revert the change through the notification email or on the Domain page.

If you use a custom sign-in page, your friendly management domain must also be configured as an instance-level site vanity domain.

To delete the friendly management domain, click Remove. Oracle Content Management will send an email to all users informing them that they should now access your instance through the original domain.
