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
