TracCloud Custom URL
By default, we offer four different URL formats for your TracCloud instance, depending on which you prefer. These are listed below.
traccloud.go-redrock.com/SCHOOL (Default)
app.trac.cloud/SCHOOL
SCHOOL.trac.cloud
SCHOOL.traccloud.com

However, if you want to use your own domain (e.g., trac.school.edu). This requires some additional configuration in your DNS settings and coordination with Redrock Software. Two CNAME records will need to be created, school.edu is being used as an example below.

1. Create a CNAME pointing to our TracCloud URL.
trac.school.edu (any subdomain works, using 'trac' as an example here)
Pointing to:
traccloud.go-redrock.com

2. Create a CNAME for AWS Validation.
This step requires a unique CNAME generated by Redrock software for you to use. The CNAME below is for example, and should not be used as your actual CNAME value.
_ABCDEFGHIJ1234567890.school.edu.
Pointing to:
_ABCDEFGHIJ.1234567890.acm-validations.aws.

When you're ready to start using your custom domain, reach out to us at helpdesk@go-redrock.com with the URL you want to use, and we will provide the validation URLs along with specific instructions for your campus.
