2. If you haven’t added a custom domain yet, follow the instructions here: cutt.ly/resources/support/custom-domains/how-to-add-custom-domain-in-cuttly

3. If you already have a Custom Domain, go to the "Edit Account" section.

Important Notes: Remember, it’s your responsibility to register the static part of the link (e.g., https://your.domain/HEADER/) with DLT (Distributed Ledger Technology). Cuttly only provides the tool to manage headers. In the Main Dashboard and Regular API, you can shorten links only with an active domain and an active header. For API use, specify domain=1 and header=1 parameters.



For TEAM plans:

If you need more flexibility in managing headers and domains, consider upgrading to a TEAM plan.

In the TEAM dashboard, you can add a domain (along with all its Tracking HEADERs) and manage them easily.

In the TEAM API, you have full flexibility to choose a domain (if added to the team) and assign the relevant header using the parameter header: hheader={your_HEADER}.
