4U Onboarding for IT Departments

Provides guidance for configuring your systems when using the 4U Platform.

Updated over a week ago

Background

This article details a couple of basic network and email related configurations that you will want to perform as part of onboarding the 4U Platform application. These changes will ensure that your users have a seamless experience.

Email Servers

Please update your email security rules to allow emails from the @4uplatform.com domain to ensure that users receive emails from the platform.

Additionally, if you have rules that automatically rewrite links in emails to go through a proxy server, we ask that you disable this functionality for emails from the @4uplatform.com domain.

Network Firewalls

Domain Allow Listing

If your organization maintains a corporate firewall or other network security features that restricts employee access to approved websites only, you'll need to allow https traffic with the following domains:

  • *.4uplatform.com (note the wildcard)

  • *.sd.4uplatform.com (note the wildcard)

  • cdn-4u-prod-us-east-1.s3.amazonaws.com

  • cdn-4u-prod-us-west-2.s3.amazonaws.com

  • api-storage-4u-us-east-1.s3.amazonaws.com

  • api-storage-4u-us-west-2.s3.amazonaws.com

  • secure-docs-storage-4u-prod-us-east-1.s3.amazonaws.com

  • secure-docs-storage-4u-prod-us-west-2.s3.amazonaws.com

  • *.split.io

* Please note that we utilize dynamic pools of servers and so it's not possible to perform IP-based allow listing; it must be done by domain name.

HTTP Response Headers

If your organization maintains a firewall and/or network devices that re-write or remove http response headers, you'll need to disable this functionality for *.4uplatform.com domains.

This issue is less common but we occasionally see this problem with certain types of firewalls that strip out access-control-allow-origin headers. When this happens critical functionality on the site will break due to CORS-related errors.

Browsers

4U supports current versions of the following browsers:

  • Microsoft Edge

  • Chrome

  • Firefox
