To test your web store, create a unique domain in Release Preview for a seamless experience. Here’s how to set it up:

Setting Up a Unique Domain

  1. Configure your web store by following the instructions in the relevant documentation for setting up domains.

  2. After setting up your domain, conduct testing using these steps:

    1. Open a browser window and visit your web store on the newly created custom domain.
    2. Conduct your tests to ensure everything functions as expected.

Domain Types for Setup

When setting up domains, consider which types best suit your needs:

  • Single secure domain for both shopping and checkout: This allows a seamless shopping experience on one secure HTTPS domain. Note that if you use SuiteCommerce MyAccount, you must configure this type.
  • Separate secure shopping and checkout domains: This setup requires following specific steps for both the shopping domain and secure checkout domain. Ensure proper linkage between them.

By properly setting up and testing your web store using unique domains, you can enhance the shopping experience for your customers and ensure that all functions run smoothly throughout your Release Preview environment.

Key Considerations:

  • Always validate the functionality of your web store on the new domain before going live.
  • Be aware of requirements and limitations regarding domain types.
  • Ensure all links between your shopping and checkout domains are correctly established for a seamless customer journey.

Who This Affects:
