Add Domain

Associate custom domains with your application to make it accessible over the internet.

• Host: The domain name that you want to link to your application (e.g., api.dokploy.com).
• Path: The specific path within the domain where the application should be accessible.
• Container Port: The port on the container that the domain should route to.
• HTTPS: Toggle this on to enable HTTPS for your domain, providing secure, encrypted connections.
• Certificate: Select (letsencrypt) or (None)

Note

Proper domain configuration is crucial for the accessibility and security of your application. Always verify domain settings and ensure that DNS configurations are properly set up to point to the correct IP addresses. Enable HTTPS to enhance security and trust, especially for production environments.

Important Clarification on Container Ports

The "Container Port" specified in the domain settings is exclusively for routing traffic to the correct application container through Traefik, and does not expose the port directly to the internet. This is fundamentally different from the port settings in the "Advanced -> Ports" section, which are used to directly expose application ports. The container port in the domain settings ensures that Traefik can internally direct traffic to the specified port within the container based on the domain configuration.
