Customize the Admin Portal

Customize your Admin Portal UI to align with your brand identity and design preferences```

Customizing your admin portal ensures that its interface matches your application's brand identity.

Follow this guide to configure your custom domain, upload your logo, adjust colors, and add a favicon, creating a seamless user experience

Custom Domain

Custom domains allow you to provide a fully branded experience. By default, Scalekit assigns a unique endpoint URL, but you can replace it using CNAME configuration. This new URL serves as the base path for:

• The admin portal, where customers interact with your brand.
• SSO and SCIM configuration details to set up connections with Identity Providers.
• The Scalekit REST API endpoints used by your applications.

Example:

Before	After
https://yourapp.scalekit.com	https://auth.yourapp.com

info

• Integrations: All existing integrations remain unaffected by the new CNAME URL if they were configured before the change with previous configuration.
• Environment: CNAME configuration is available only for production environments.
• SSL: After successful CNAME configuration, an SSL certificate for your custom domain is automatically provisioned.

Add a CNAME Record

To set up your custom domain:

1. Go to your domain’s DNS Registrar.
2. Add a new record to your DNS settings and select CNAME as the record type.
3. Copy the Name (your desired subdomain) from the Scalekit Dashboard and paste it into the Name/Label/Host field in your DNS Registrar.
4. Copy the Value from the Scalekit Dashboard and paste it into the Destination/Target/Value field in your DNS Registrar.
5. Save the record in your DNS Registrar. Note that CNAME record changes can take up to 72 hours to propagate, although they typically happen much sooner.
6. In the Scalekit Dashboard, click Verify.

If there are any issues during the CNAME verification step:

• Double-check your DNS configuration to ensure all values are correctly entered.
• Once the CNAME changes take effect, Scalekit will automatically provision an SSL certificate for your custom domain. This process can take up to 24 hours.

You can click on the Check button in the Scalekit Dashboard to verify SSL certification status. If SSL provisioning takes longer than 24 hours, please contact us at support@scalekit.com.
