Approved Domains for Images

Prev Next

This article discusses how to approve domains so that URLs related to that domain can be used to display images in Grids and in an Org Chart.

⚠️ Important

Member must have an Account type of Security Admin or Primary Owner to be able to add domains.

What are approved domains?

How to identify a domain

Start with the URL you want to analyze. Let's use the URL https://www.example.com/path/page.html as an example.

Remove the protocol, for example https:// from the URL, if present. This part is not part of the domain.

Locate the first / after the protocol. Everything before this slash is part of the main domain. If there is no slash after the protocol, the entire remaining portion is part of the main domain.

The portion before the first / is the main domain. In this case, www.example.com is the main domain.

⚠️ Important

Starting January 2024, Google’s updated cookies policy prevents the use of Google Drive for hosting images. For more information, see the Google cookie policy

Here are a few more examples:

ℹ️ Note

Image widgets do not require a URL to be from an approved domain.
