Setting up a custom domain for your Roadmap portal

Background

By default roadmap portal gets hosted on roadmapper.app domain. Now, you can set up your own custom domain/subdomain to host your roadmap portal. This will allow your roadmap portal to use URL like http://feedback.yourcompany.com .

Steps to Configure Custom Domain/Sub-domain

  • As a Jira Service Desk project administrator, navigate to a JSD project.

  • In the project menu, click on Roadmap portal in the left hand navigation. 

  • From the dropdown in the top right corner, choose the board which you want to edit.

  • Navigate to the last tab - Custom domain

    There are three steps to configure custom domain/sub-domain for your roadmap portal.

Step1 : Update your DNS

Add CNAME settings in your domain registrar login to point your custom domain to cname.roadmapper.app under the DNS settings.

Step 2: Add your custom domain

  • Enable custom domain setting in your roadmap portal settings

  • Confirm in step1 if you have already added CNAME record with your domain registrar. (You can confirm this later if it is not added yet)

  • Enter your custom URL and click on Add

Step 3: SSL Configuration

  • Click on “Request SSL” button and save board settings to submit SSL request.

Note, after you click on request SSL button it is important to click on save button to send your SSL request.

  • We will configure the SSL certificate for the custom URL within 1-2 working days.

  • If not confirmed already, you can confirm here CNAME settings added to your domain registrar.

  • Once SSL certificate added, you will see updated status on this screen.

  • Custom URL status will change to “Active” when both CNAME settings and SSL are added.

  • Your roadmap portal is now live on the custom URL.
