Domain Name and Bundle ID Whitelisting is a way to protect your Streamroot Key on web platforms and mobile applications. It allows you to limit the use of CDN Mesh Delivery to your website or App and your streams, thus preventing unwanted use of your Streamroot Key on a third-party site or Apps.

Set up your domain names and bundle IDs in the License & Security in the Settings Section of your dashboard.

How it works

We associate your Streamroot Key with the website(s) and bundle ID(s) you indicate.

• If the Streamroot Key doesn't match your whitelisted websites and bundle IDs, viewers will not be able to connect to the Streamroot tracker and will not receive or generate any peer traffic.
• The video will still be downloaded from your server and played as usual.
• If the Streamroot Key matches the website domain or Bundle ID, viewers will be connected to the Streamroot tracker and they will be able to benefit from peer traffic.

Special cases:

Iframed and embedded players

For iframed or embedded players, the website taken into account will be the source website.

Localhost

Localhost (127.0.0.1) is always whitelisted. This means that you do not have to configure anything to perform tests locally.

Syntax

• The domain should not contain a character that is not a letter, a number, a dot, or a hyphen.
• The domain should not contain more than 253 characters.
• The domain must contain a label that starts or ends with a hyphen.
• A label should not contain more than 63 characters.
• The domain should not contain protocols.
• The domain should not contain a path.

Examples

You can either allow access to your entire website or for several subdomains. 

• mywebsite.com
• sub.mywebsite.com
