Session Playback Subdomain Update & Forced Global Settings Publish
As previously communicated to customers using Session Playbacks, changes have been made to WalkMe’s subdomains. If your IT department has allowisted walkme.com or does not require allowlisting of WalkMe domains, no further action will be needed.
If your IT department has allowlisted specific WalkMe subdomains, updates will be needed to ensure Session Playbacks will continue being collected.
- If your IT is currently allowlisting rapi.walkme.com, they will need to replace this with the following sub-domain: ec-playback.walkme.com
Please note, if your IT needs to make these updates, this will not impact your end users engaging with WalkMe content. Until these changes are made by IT, and Session Playbacks will not be collected.
All subdomains that may require allowlisting from your IT can be found here.
To finalize this process, there will be a gradual roll-out within the WalkMe Editor with a forced global setting publish. Any settings you have at that time will automatically be pushed to all environments. After the publish is made, IT will need to have the specific WalkMe subdomains allowlisted, if applicable. You can request IT to update the subdomains, before this update occurs in your Editor.
