Remove or deactivate a custom domain
This feature is currently only available through our Early Access Program.
If you’re not participating in the program you can still change the subdomain of your product URL. Learn how to change a product URL subdomain
A custom domain provides a branded, easy-to-remember URL to access Atlassian products. If you want to revert back to using the default product URL, you can deactivate or remove the custom domain.
Deactivate a custom domain
If you’re having trouble with your custom domain, it can be useful to deactivate it while you troubleshoot the problem. You need to be an Organization admin to do this.
To deactivate a custom domain:
Go to admin.atlassian.com. Select your organization if you have more than one.
Select Products > Product URLs.
Select the Custom domains tab.
For the domain you want to deactivate, select More Actions () > Deactivate domain.
The domain will appear with a status of Inactive in the list. Any requests will fall back to the default product URL. Any people currently accessing the product, when the change happens, will still be able to access, they’ll just hit the default product URL on their next request.
Remove a custom domain
If you no longer want to use a custom domain, you can remove it. You may want to make a note of the DNS records so you can also remove them from your DNS provider, if appropriate.
You need to be an Organization admin to do this.
To remove a custom domain:
Go to admin.atlassian.com. Select your organization if you have more than one.
Select Products > Product URLs.
Select the Custom domains tab.
For the domain you want to remove, select More Actions () > Remove.
It can take a few minutes to remove the domain. Any people currently accessing the product will still be able to access, they’ll just hit the default URL on the next request.
It will appear in the list with the status Inactive until the process is complete. Once that’s done, you can remove the records from your DNS provider if you don’t plan to reuse the domain.
