About This Feature

Overview

Open Link Domain in Chat Client Settings lets administrators define which link domains can open directly inside the chat client. After a domain allowlist is configured in the admin console, links that match the listed domains can open directly in the chat client, while other links need to be copied into a browser.

This feature is useful for enterprise chat security management, access control for commonly used business websites, and standardized internal access rules. Multiple valid domains can be entered at one time, separated by commas. Up to 250 domains can be configured, with a total limit of 5000 characters.
