Every BulkheadOS workspace gets a default domain after provisioning. Custom domains use a guided verification path and stay Protected until DNS, SSL, and tenant evidence are attached.
Setting Up Your Domain
- Go to Workspace Settings → Domain
- Enter your custom domain (e.g.,
docs.yourbrand.com) - Follow the DNS instructions shown — you'll need to add a CNAME or AAAA record at your DNS provider
- Save the settings
Keep the custom-domain row Protected until the domain resolves, HTTPS works, and verification evidence is linked to the tenant.
DNS Configuration
At your DNS provider (Cloudflare, Namecheap, Google Domains, etc.), create one of these records:
| Type | Name | Value | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
CNAME | Your subdomain | edge.bulkheados.com | For subdomains (docs.yourbrand.com) |
AAAA | @ | 100:: | For apex domains (yourbrand.com) |
Cloudflare users: If your domain is already on Cloudflare, follow the workspace DNS guidance and verify the resulting HTTPS route before marking the domain Ready.
SSL & Security
BulkheadOS expects custom domains to serve over HTTPS after verification. Do not treat SSL as Ready until the live tenant route proves it.
Domain Aliases
Need multiple domains pointing to the same site? Add additional domains as aliases in Domain Settings. Alias domains automatically redirect to your primary domain with a 301, preserving SEO value.
