#The Custom Domain object

Captures a branded hostname that Linkbreakers provisions for a workspace so scans and shortlinks resolve under the customer's domain, including verification and certificate lifecycle state.

activatedAt

string (date-time)

Timestamp when the domain became active after passing verification and certificate checks.

certificateExpiresAt

string (date-time)

When the certificate currently serving this domain expires. While the status is STATUS_RENEWAL_PENDING the domain keeps working until this date, then stops.

cloudflareHostnameStatus

string

Raw hostname status reported by the certificate provider, recorded at the last check.

cloudflareSslStatus

string

Raw SSL status reported by the certificate provider, recorded at the last check.

createdAt

string (date-time)

Timestamp when the domain was created

string

Unique identifier for the custom domain (UUID)

lastCheckedAt

string (date-time)

Timestamp of the last verification check

lastError

string

Human-readable reason the domain is not fully active, as reported at the last check. Empty when the domain is healthy.

name

string

The domain name

rootDestination

string

URL where visitors are redirected when accessing your custom domain without a path (e.g., qr.yourdomain.com). This redirect is not tracked and serves purely for white-label purposes—preventing visitors from seeing linkbreakers.com branding. If not specified, redirects to linkbreakers.com by default.

status

string (enum)

The status of a custom domain of that certificate cannot be validated. It stops working at certificate_expires_at.

Allowed values

STATUS_UNSPECIFIED

The status is not specified

STATUS_INACTIVE

The domain is inactive. It was created but not checked yet.

STATUS_DOMAIN_PENDING

The domain is pending. Last time it was checked, it was not pointing to the correct Linkbreakers subdomain.

STATUS_VERIFICATION_PENDING

The domain is pending verification. Please verify through TXT record.

STATUS_CERTIFICATE_PENDING

The domain is pending certificate. The SSL certificate is not yet ready.

STATUS_ACTIVE

The domain is fully active

STATUS_RENEWAL_PENDING

The domain is still serving traffic on a valid certificate, but the renewal

STATUS_EXPIRED

The certificate expired or was withdrawn. The domain no longer serves HTTPS.

updatedAt

string (date-time)

Timestamp when the domain was last updated

workspaceId

string

The ID of the workspace this domain belongs to (UUID)
