Testing Custom Domains

To test the custom domains feature locally, add the CNAME target to your hosts file:

# Add this line to /etc/hosts (macOS/Linux) or C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts (Windows)
127.0.0.1 custom.getprobo.com

This allows you to test custom trust center domains on your local machine. The CNAME target can be configured in cfg/dev.yaml under custom-domains.cname-target.

For detailed setup instructions, see our Contributing Guide.
