Submit the request for this change by creating a Salesforce case. The deployment will be planned together with Salesforce.

3. After the Change
a. Go to the Connexys Setup, Application Settings, All settings, General and fill in the new Site URL at “Salesforce domain name”
b. Go in the Salesforce Setup and look for “Remote Site Settings”, create a New Remote Site with the new Site URL.
c. From the created overview (step 1), edit the hard coded URL with the new (sub)domain.


Change of My Domain

The same steps applies for the The My Domain (except step 3.a). The My Domain Salesforce feature makes it possible to add a subdomain to your Salesforce org URL. If you want to change the Subdomain, you should read this Salesforce article for more background information. For example you can change a subdomain into https://somethingcool.my.salesforce.com instead of https://na30.salesforce.com. Notice that this URL is for internal use, so for the Connexys application (see the image below).
