What We Need From You¶
Scope: What we need to put CampusCore on your own web address, like
ai.university.edu, with HTTPS.Already settled during AWS Setup & Initial Deployment: your domain name and SSL preference are part of the deployment configuration, so we collect those before the first deploy. They are listed below so this stage stands on its own - but the genuinely new piece here is DNS access and the record you create once deployment finishes.
- Custom domain name - the exact address your users will visit, for example
ai.university.edu. (Collected at AWS setup as deployment configuration.) - SSL preference - CampusCore-managed SSL (recommended - we provision and auto-renew the certificate) or self-managed SSL (you handle HTTPS yourself, e.g. through Cloudflare or your own load balancer). (Collected at AWS setup as deployment configuration.)
- DNS access - someone on your side who can create a CNAME record for that domain, usually your IT or web team. This is the new piece at this stage.
The DNS record is something you create after the first deployment - we give you the exact value to point at. See How It Works.
