Domains

Hostnames and their state: DNS status, what each domain serves, and the Manage entry.

A domain connects a hostname to a site — shop.example.de to the storefront behind it. This screen is where you see whether DNS is right and what each hostname actually serves.

Where you find it

Experience Studio › Surfaces › Domains/experience/domains.

What it does

One row per hostname. Add Domain registers a new one, Manage opens the domain's detail screen, and the refresh icon re-checks the list. Search, a filter and a list/grid switch narrow the view.

Fields and controls

ColumnValues seen
DomainThe hostname.
DNS StatusActive — the records point at the platform. Pending — registered, records not yet confirmed. Failed — the check did not pass.
ServingWhat answers on this hostname: a site name, Redirect → <host>, or Not routed.
StatusLive, Redirect, or Unconfigured.

What happens when you change it

A domain becomes useful in two steps: the DNS records at your registrar have to point at the platform (DNS Status turns Active), and the domain has to be routed to a site or a redirect (Status turns Live or Redirect). A domain stuck on Pending is almost always a record that was never set or has not propagated yet; Failed means the check ran and the answer was wrong. Both are fixed at the registrar, not in the Cockpit.
