Set an Assistant's Origin Domains
An Assistant in deployment answers only on pages whose domain is one of its Origin Domains, so no other site can spend your organization's credits. Enter the domain of every site that shows the Assistant: your website, the site that serves your Reverb 2.0 help, or both.
Add a domain
In AI Assistants, open the Assistant.
On the Configure tab, go to Origin Domains.
Type the domain in the empty field. Enter the host name only, such as
example.com, with nohttps://, port or path.Type any other domain in the next empty field.
Click Save Changes.
When the header shows Up to date, the list is in effect.
An Assistant can have up to 50 Origin Domains. A full list has no empty field: click the × beside a domain you no longer need, then type the new domain in the field it empties. An entry covers every subdomain of its domain, so one entry can take the place of several. See What an entry covers.
Remove a domain
Click the × beside the domain, then click Save Changes.
What an entry covers
An entry covers its domain and every subdomain of it. Letter case, http or https, and the port make no difference.
Entry | Covers | Doesn't cover |
|---|---|---|

To keep the Assistant off the rest of a site, list only the subdomain it belongs on. Don't enter wildcards: *.example.com matches nothing, and example.com already covers its subdomains.
Entries that can't be saved
Save Changes is refused, and none of the Configure settings in that save are stored, when an entry:
includes a protocol, port or path, such as
https://example.com,example.com:8080orexample.com/helpis
localhost, or ends in.localhost,.local,.internal,.test,.exampleor.invalidis a loopback, private or link-local IP address
The banner at the top of the Configure tab names the entry, for example "localhost" is not usable here. Correct or remove the entry and save again.
To try the Assistant before it is on a public site, use the Preview tab. Preview doesn't depend on Origin Domains.
What else Origin Domains decide
Area | Rule |
|---|---|
Deployment | An Assistant needs at least one Origin Domain to go into deployment. If a deployed Assistant loses its last domain, it stays in deployment, answers on no site, and the In Deployment section lists the unmet requirement. See Put an Assistant in deployment. |
Website import | Only a website on one of these domains can be imported, and the importer reads no other host. See Import a website. |
Links in answers | In the Embedded Assistant, an answer keeps a link only when the address is in the Assistant's knowledge or on one of these domains. See Links and sources in answers. |
