Custom domain
By default your OpenClaw dashboard answers at <subdomain>.rapidbot.dev. With a custom domain it answers at your own, for example bot.yourdomain.com.
Setup
Step 1: Create a DNS record
In your DNS provider (Cloudflare, Namecheap, Route 53, or another), create a CNAME record:
| Field | Value |
|---|---|
| Type | CNAME |
| Name / Host | Your subdomain, for example bot |
| Target / Value | <your-subdomain>.rapidbot.dev |
Your Rapidbot subdomain is the host of the dashboard URL on the OpenClaw dashboard card. A dashboard URL of https://a1b2c3.rapidbot.dev makes a1b2c3.rapidbot.dev your CNAME target.
Once a domain is configured, the Custom domain card shows that target with a copy icon, so you can check the record you created against it.
Step 2: Configure in Rapidbot
- Go to your dashboard and find the Custom domain card.
- Enter your full domain, for example
bot.yourdomain.com. - Select Configure.
Step 3: Wait for verification
The status badge reads pending while we verify. This usually takes a few minutes, and up to ten if your DNS is slow to propagate.
Once the badge reads active, your OpenClaw dashboard answers at your domain.
The OpenClaw dashboard card keeps showing your rapidbot.dev URL, and Open OpenClaw dashboard keeps using it. Both addresses work. Bookmark your own domain yourself.
Changing or removing the domain
Select Update domain to point the card at a different domain. Select Remove, then Remove again in the confirmation toast that appears in the corner. Nothing changes until you select it there, and the toast disappears after a few seconds. After a removal your dashboard is reachable at your rapidbot.dev subdomain again.
Troubleshooting
If the status does not reach active:
- Check that your CNAME points at
<your-subdomain>.rapidbot.dev, not at an IP address or another domain. - Give the record time to propagate.
- Select Update domain, re-enter the domain, and select Update to run verification again.
