A custom domain gives your DreamFlow-powered pages (booking pages, forms, help center) a professional look with your own brand URL instead of a generic DreamFlow subdomain.
Before You Start
- A registered domain name you control
- Access to your domain's DNS settings (usually at your registrar: GoDaddy, Namecheap, Cloudflare, etc.)
- Admin or Owner role in DreamFlow
Step 1: Add Your Domain in DreamFlow
- Go to Settings > Custom Domain.
- Enter the domain or subdomain you want to use (e.g.,
crm.yourcompany.com). - Click Add Domain. DreamFlow will display the DNS records you need to add.
Step 2: Configure DNS Records
Add these records at your DNS provider:
- CNAME record: Point your subdomain (e.g.,
crm) to the target DreamFlow provides (e.g.,custom.dreamflowcrm.com). - TXT record (verification): Add the verification TXT record DreamFlow displays to prove domain ownership.
Note
DNS changes can take up to 48 hours to propagate, though most providers update within 15 minutes. DreamFlow will check automatically and notify you when verification is complete.
Step 3: SSL Certificate
DreamFlow automatically provisions a free SSL certificate for your custom domain once DNS verification passes. No manual action needed -- HTTPS is enabled automatically.
Step 4: Verify and Go Live
- Return to Settings > Custom Domain.
- Click Verify Domain. If DNS has propagated, you will see a green Active badge.
- Visit your custom domain in a browser to confirm it loads your DreamFlow pages.
Tip
Use a subdomain like crm.yourcompany.com rather than your apex domain. Subdomains use CNAME records which are simpler to configure and more reliable for custom domains.
Troubleshooting
- Domain not verifying: Double-check that both the CNAME and TXT records are added correctly. Use dnschecker.org to confirm propagation.
- SSL not working: SSL provisioning can take up to 10 minutes after DNS verification. If it does not resolve, disconnect and reconnect the domain.
