In this lesson, you will learn how to set up a custom domain or subdomain for your Flipsnack profile, enabling you to remove Flipsnack branding and enhance your brand's online presence. The steps covered include:
Configuring your custom domain by entering your desired URL and selecting an SSL certificate.
Choosing between Flipsnack's standard SSL certificate or uploading a custom SSL certificate.
Setting up DNS settings by creating a CNAME record with your domain registrar.
By the end of this lesson, you'll be able to set up a branded URL for your Flipsnack profile, ensuring that your audience sees a professional, custom-branded link when accessing your flipbooks.
Custom SSL certificate specifications:
- Imported SSL should have 1024-bit RSA, 2048-bit RSA, and Elliptic Prime Curve 256-bit keys only
- You must enter the private key that matches the certificate you are importing.
- The private key must be unencrypted. You cannot import a private key that is protected by a password or a passphrase.
- The private key must be no larger than 5 KB (5,120 bytes).
- If the certificate you are importing is not self-signed, you must enter its certificate chain.
- If a certificate chain is included, the issuer must be the subject of one of the certificates in the chain.
- The certificate, private key, and certificate chain must be PEM-encoded.
- The cryptographic algorithm of an imported certificate must match the algorithm of the signing CA. For example, if the signing CA key type is RSA, then the certificate key type must also be RSA.
- A certificate must be an SSL/TLS X.509 version 3 certificate. It must contain a public key, the fully qualified domain name (FQDN) or IP address for your website, and information about the issuer.
- A certificate can be self-signed by a private key you own or signed by the private key of an issuing CA. You must provide the private key, which may be no larger than 5 KB (5,120 bytes) and must be unencrypted.
- If the certificate is signed by a CA, and you choose to provide the certificate chain, the chain must be PEM–encoded.
