A branded domain in Uxify allows you to serve Uxify scripts from your own domain, ensuring they load as first-party assets. This improves security, enhances privacy compliance, and helps bypass tracking blockers that might otherwise prevent the scripts from executing.
Why use a branded domain?
Bypass tracking blockers – Many browsers and extensions block third-party scripts by default. Serving Uxify scripts from your own domain ensures they are treated as first-party assets and are less likely to be blocked.
Improve security – By hosting scripts under your domain, you reduce the risk of third-party script injections or malicious tampering.
Enhance trust and compliance – Some privacy regulations and corporate policies require assets to be served from a first-party domain. A branded domain setup helps meet these requirements.
How to set up a branded domain
Navigate to Settings > Website Settings:
Choose a subdomain – Select a subdomain (e.g.,
uxify.yourdomain.com
).
Create a CNAME record – In your DNS provider, create a CNAME record pointing
uxify.yourdomain.com
toconnect.cwv.io
.
Verify and test – Once your DNS setup has been updated click on "Verify" to ensure the DNS record is set correctly.
Update your snippets - The new branded domain setup will require you to update your previous snippet from Uxify, with the newly generated one.
Verify installation - Once your snippet has been updated you can verify it to ensure that all steps were implemented correctly.
Troubleshooting
DNS changes not reflected – DNS propagation can take up to 24 hours. Try clearing your DNS cache or using a DNS checker. Learn more in our in-depth article.
Scripts not loading – Ensure the CNAME record is correctly set up and that your Uxify configuration is updated.
Mixed content errors – If your site uses HTTPS, make sure your branded domain is correctly serving content over SSL.
