Your LaunchNotes page can be set up with a custom subdomain or as a sub-directory on your existing marketing site domain.

Examples

Sub-directory of your existing marketing site

https://www.example.com/launch-notes/

Sub-domain

https://updates.example.com/

Setting up either option will require someone with a technical background. We recommend working with your engineering team on this.

❗ This article will cover setting up a custom subdomain. If you're interesting in setting up a custom subdirectory, please follow the steps in this help article on Setting up a custom subdirectory.

Sub-domain

In order to use the sub-domain option, you must decide what host and sub-domain you plan to use.

For example, updates.example.com

With this decision, you must add a CNAME record in your domain's DNS that points to customer.launchnotes.net

updates.example.com CNAME customer.launchnotes.net

❗❗ Please ensure that the CNAME points to customer.launchnotes.net - we will provision your ingress on your specific account at our end.

Once this is done, please contact us at [email protected], or via live chat in your management portal, so that we can provision your custom ingress and TLS termination. This typically takes a minute or two. Once it is complete, it requires no further work on your end.
