IXON Cloud custom domain

Required modules
Required modules: Custom Domain and White-Labelling. Check your modules at Admin > Licenses. To obtain these modules, contact your IXON account manager or IXON distributor.

With a custom domain (URL) you are essentially making the IXON Cloud your very own IIoT platform. Appearing as an integral part of the services that your company provides to its clients. The login page and any automated e-mails, for example when you invite a new user, will be automatically styled in your IXON Cloud company's branding.

The custom domain needs to be a subdomain of a domain that you own. For example, if your company website is propackmachinery.com, a subdomain could be insight.propackmachinery.com. We will automatically generate the necessary SSL certificate.

  1. Go to Admin > Identity.
  2. Under White Label Premium, edit the Custom domain name.
  3. Follow the on-screen instructions.
    • Note that the TTL value of 300 is a recommendation. Any TTL value will work.

IXON and custom domain

IXON is a multi-tenant SaaS solution. Meaning you can use both your custom domain (e.g. https://insight.propack-machinery.com) and the IXON domain (https://portal.ixon.cloud) to access your Cloud company and devices. This also provides the benefit of not needing to transfer any devices or settings when you you start using a custom domain, because everything is already there.

Single Sign-On

The Single Sign-On login buttons Log in with Google and Log in with Microsoft will need manual configuration to work with your custom domain. These buttons are therefore hidden by default. If you wish to use Single Sign-On, please contact our support team to assist you setting it up.

IXON Cloud custom terms of use and privacy statement

Required modules
Required modules: Legal and Custom Domain and White-Labelling. Check your modules at Admin > Licenses. To obtain these modules, contact your IXON account manager or IXON distributor.
Required role
Required role: Platform administrator. If you have a different role, this option will not be visible.

You can fully customize the Terms of use and Privacy statement of your IXON Cloud company account.

When you create an IXON Cloud company account, you have to accept IXON's Terms of use and can view IXON's Privacy statement on behalf of your company. These are legal contracts between your company and IXON.

Your custom terms of use and privacy statement are presented to and need to be accepted by all users that you invite into your IXON Cloud company account. These are legal contracts between the invited user and your company.

This contract, between the user and your company, does not affect the contract between your company and IXON.

  1. Go to Admin > Identity.
  2. Under White Label Premium, edit the Terms of use or Privacy statement document type:
    • Standard: The standard document from IXON.
    • Custom: A customized document.
    • No document.
  3. Confirm your choice.
