In your WAF (e.g. Cloudflare), declare the tracking domain to use (e.g. waf.myshop.com) and point it to the endpoint we defined for the proxy: ca-trk-proxy.commander1.com
Point your tracking domain (e.g. waf.myshop.com) to your WAF (the CNAME is provided by your WAF - e.g. Cloudflare).
Check your settings by navigating from your browser to the tracking domain (e.g. waf.myshop.com). The page will display "OK".
Go to your CommandersAct CAX interface: Administration > Domain Management
Click on add subdomain, enter the subdomain (e.g. waf.myshop.com), select "External Proxy" and save.
In the list, activate "Container integration" for the newly created sub-domain.
Regenerate and deploy all your containers.
Bravo, you're now trading in "First"!
Tracking may need to be upgraded if it is managed outside the container (e.g. tracking views, clicks, data activation, OneTag outside commandersAct containers, etc.). If in doubt, contact support ().
