Custom Environment Domains
RallyHere supports using a custom domain for each environment. This will allow you to use a friendlier URL in your game client, on your website, and will appear in any OAuth consent screens with third-party platforms (such as Steam).
Your RallyHere environment URL is available in the Developer Portal, and will be of the form ENVIRONMENT_ID.rally-here.io
(e.g. 81e0eb92-99be-44d1-ae60-470ce42f6450.rally-here.io
).
Naturally, something like api.mygame.com
is easier to remember and work with. OAuth consent screens, in particular, have caused some end-users to be confused about their security and create support tickets.
Setup
- Create a CNAME record in your DNS provider pointing to the RallyHere environment URL.
- IP Addresses underlying the RallyHere environment URL are not guaranteed to be stable, so a CNAME record will ensure that your custom domain continues to work without additional future maintenance.
- Provide your custom domain to your RallyHere representative to apply the custom domain to your environment.
TLS Certificates
As part of configuration a custom domain, RallyHere will automatically renew and manage certificates for the domain. You do not need to provide your own certificates.
