    Dear community,

     

    I'm using CA API Dev Portal 3.5.

    My question is about email notification, and more specifically links generated in those emails (new account / admin notification, etc).

     

    It appears that hostname of the server is used in those url, which in my case is not corresponding to the DNS entry.

     

    Let me illustrate the issue. Here is an example of email notification (note that urldefense is our spam solution which automatically re-write urls) :

    **NOTE: this is a system generated message. Please do not reply to this message.** Thanks

     

    Instead of using the public DNS entry, ie api_portal.company.com, the portal uses the hostname of the vm hosting it, server186.company.net.

     

    Is there a way for chaning this (other than changing hostname of the server) ?

    Hi,

     

    You can change the hostname to your domain name by editing the below file

     

    change the hostname value 

    /opt/Deployments/lrs/server/webapps/ROOT/site-configuration.xml

     

    please correct me if i am wrong.
