Thank you for your feedback
If your organization uses a firewall to restrict network access to only specific websites or software, then you need to whitelist the following domains to ensure that your app can communicate with Whatfix and fetch content for your end users to view.
Also, if your organization has a Content Security Policy (CSP) in place to block external code insertions, it could prevent Whatfix from working on your app.
To prevent this from happening and to resolve CSP violation errors, the following domains must be added as an exception (Whitelisted) as part of the application's CSP headers. For more information, see Content Security Policy Reference.
CSP directives to whitelist for all data centers:
The following subdomains need to be whitelisted under all three CSP directives, that is, frame-src, connect-src, and script-src:
Note:
If you cannot whitelist the subdomains, use the following URL patterns to ensure that your app can communicate with Whatfix:
Non-EU data centers:
Non-EU data centers:
- https://cdn.whatfix.com/prod/*
- https://whatfix.com/service/*
EU data centers:
- https://eucdn.whatfix.com/prod/*
- https://eu.whatfix.com/service/*
Info:
- Both https://whatfix.com and https://cdn.whatfix.com use Port 443, which is the port for the HTTPS Protocol.
- Depending on the deployment model, you need to whitelist only the necessary directives.
Info:
The following domains also need to be whitelisted if you have configured Google Analytics for your account:
Whitelist Google Analytics (GA) domains only if you have GA configured for your account.| Deployment Model | CSP Directives | Domain/value |
| Export (Content on the same server) | connect-src | *whatfix.com |
| style-src | unsafe-inline | |
| img-src | data: | |
| font-src | *.whatfix.com | |
| media-src | *.whatfix.com | |
| Export (Content fetched from a different domain server) | connect-src | *whatfix.com |
| script-src | *.<domain>, <domain> | |
| frame-src | ||
| style-src | unsafe-inline | |
| img-src | data: | |
| font-src | *.whatfix.com | |
| media-src | *.whatfix.com | |
| CDN | connect-src | *.whatfix.com |
| script-src | *.whatfix.com | |
| frame-src | ||
| style-src | unsafe-inline | |
| img-src | data: | |
| font-src | *.whatfix.com | |
| media-src | *.whatfix.com |
Note:
- Your IT Admin can help whitelist the domains mentioned.
- If you are using any video or image links in your Whatfix content, then you need to whitelist those domains as well. For example, if you embed a YouTube video in a Pop-up, you need to whitelist youtube.com.
When do domains need whitelisting?
Whatfix recommends whitelisting the domains as soon as you start creating content on Whatfix. This way, content authors will not have any issues previewing and testing the content.
IP addresses to Whitelist
To ensure that Whatfix can access your organization's resources for crawling knowledge base content and integrations, you need to whitelist certain IP addresses. For a list of all the IP addresses you need to whitelist, see IP Ranges.
Note:
IP addresses are the same for all users.
Best Practices
Ensure that you have applied the policy to every page. It must include error pages as well.
