Custom domains is a Tally Pro feature.
 


Let’s assume your company’s website is acme.com, and you want to use the subdomain ask.acme.com to share your Tally forms. With Tally Pro you can connect this subdomain to your Tally account and create pretty URLs for each form that look like this:
🔗
Examples:
  • ask.acme.com/contact
  • ask.acme.com/customer-survey
 

1. Connect a custom domain

Go to Custom Domains on your dashboard and click Add domain.
You can add both:
  • a domain (e.g. acme.com)
  • a subdomain (e.g. ask.acme.com)

2. Add DNS records to your domain provider

Start by adding the DNS records that are generated for you to your domain name provider’s settings (like Cloudflare, Namecheap, GoDaddy or others).

Wait until the DNS records are verified (this can take anywhere from a few seconds to a few hours due to the length of time your DNS takes to propagate).
 
When your domain resolves to our servers, Tally will automatically issue an SSL Certificate. When the status turns green, your domain is active.

When the connection to your domain fails, the status will turn red.

Double-check the DNS records and click Verify to retry.

Pretty URLs

To map your forms to your domain and customize your form URLs, select a published form from the dropdown list and give it a more memorable and shorter slug. Don't forget to save your changes.

Meta data

You can control how your form URLs are displayed when shared (on social media for example) by adjusting the Meta data. You can do this on the domain or form level

Domain meta data

Go to Custom domains → open your domain and scroll down. You can upload an OG image, title and description, which will be applied to all the forms hosted on this domain.

Form meta data

You can also configure the meta data on a form level for each URL by clicking the dots next to the pretty URLs and open Page settings.

Indexing

Forms hosted on a custom (sub)domain are by default indexed by search engines. To disable indexing add this code snippet into the code injection box.
<meta name="robots" content="noindex">
 

General settings

Favicon

Upload a favicon for your domain. We recommend a square icon of at least 60x60 pixels.
