# Configuring custom domain for your portal
<a name="custom-domains"></a>

You can configure a custom domain for a WorkSpaces Secure Browser portal to enable access through your own domain name instead of the default portal URL. This feature allows you to provide users with a more integrated experience using a domain that aligns with your organization's branding.

**Overview**

Custom domain allows you to personalize the following aspects of the user experience:
+ **Branded portal access** - Users access your portal through your organization's domain instead of the default AWS endpoint.
+ **Consistent user experience** - Maintain brand consistency by using familiar domain names that align with your organization.

**Note**  
To customize the visual appearance and branding elements of your portal, see [Branding customization in Amazon WorkSpaces Secure Browser](branding-customization.md).

**Important**  
Custom domain and the single sign-on extension are mutually exclusive features and cannot be used together on the same portal. This restriction exists by design to preserve the security of browser sessions. To use a custom domain, first remove the single sign-on extension configuration from the portal. For more information about the single sign-on extension, see [Managing the single sign-on extension in Amazon WorkSpaces Secure Browser](allow-extension.md).
