Attach a custom domain so a proxy link is served at your own branded URL (e.g. nas.yourcompany.com) instead of the default *.proxy.proxylink.dev. ProxyLink issues and renews the HTTPS certificate for you automatically, you never need a paid Cloudflare plan or any certificate setup of your own.

Choose a domain type

Specific subdomain

One exact hostname for one link, e.g. nas.yourcompany.com. Best for a single fixed service.

Wildcard domain

Many links under a preview subdomain, e.g. abc123.preview.yourcompany.com. Best when you expose many devices.
Both work on any DNS provider on a free plan, including free Cloudflare. We handle the certificate on our side.

Setup

1

Add the domain in ProxyLink

Go to Domains → + Add Domain, choose Specific subdomain or Wildcard domain, and enter your domain. Open the domain’s setup page, it shows the exact DNS records to add, including your unique verification token.
2

Add the CNAME record (routes traffic to us)

In your DNS provider, add a CNAME record pointing at the target shown on the setup page:
On Cloudflare, set this record to DNS only (grey cloud), not proxied. We terminate HTTPS for you.
3

Add the TXT record (proves you own the domain)

Add the ownership-verification TXT record shown on the setup page:
(For a wildcard domain the name is _proxylink-verify.preview.yourcompany.com.) This is required, without it the domain stays unverified.
4

Verify

Back on the domain’s setup page, click Verify Now. Once your records have propagated (usually a few minutes, occasionally up to 24 hours) the domain flips to Verified.
5

Attach it to a proxy link

Create or edit a proxy link and select your domain from the Attach to domain dropdown. A wildcard domain gives each link its own random.preview.yourcompany.com hostname; a specific subdomain backs exactly one link.

HTTPS certificates

ProxyLink issues and renews the HTTPS certificate for every custom-domain link automatically, there is nothing to install or manage, and no paid Cloudflare plan is needed on your side. Issuance is quick but not instant. Right after you create a link, its card shows a certificate status:

Plan limits

You can mix types on the same root domain, e.g. a specific nas.yourcompany.com and a wildcard *.preview.yourcompany.com can both exist. Each counts as one domain against your plan limit and is verified independently.
