Changing the Dataedo Portal URL

During the Dataedo Portal installation, you can choose the binding or URL the app will use. This guide will explain how to change this binding later.

Changing the IIS binding

First, open the IIS Manager and navigate to the Dataedo Portal site:

IIS Manager

Right-click the site name, and choose Edit bindings:

Edit bindings

In the new window, select Add:

Add binding

Specify the new URL that Dataedo Portal should use in the Host name field, then click Save:

New binding

For https bindings, ensure the selected SSL certificate is current and covers the new host name.

Back in the Site Bindings window, choose the old binding and click Remove:

Removing old binding

Changing the certificate

You can set a certificate when changing the IIS binding of your portal. If, however you want to keep your current binding and change the certificate only, you can do it as well.

When you navigate to the Edit bindings screen, select the current binding and choose the edit option.

use an existing repository

In the window that opens, you can choose a new SSL certificate. Remember to save your changes by clicking ok.

use an existing repository

It can happen that you will not see the SSL certificate field when editing a binding. In such a case you should add a new binding with a certificate, and delete the old one.

Changing the API URL

If the initial installation of the Dataedo Portal was older than 23.1, you may also need to change the API URL used by the app.

To do this, open the Dataedo Portal installer and select Configure.

You can also open this folder by clicking Explore in the IIS Manager.

Explore application folder

Then, select your Portal instance and click Continue.

Edit index.html file

On the next screen, select Change API address

Edit index.html file

Provide the new value. Make sure that it is either /api/ or <name-of-your-IIS-binding>/api/. Then confirm.

Edit index.html file

After changing the value, open your IIS Manager. Then stop and start the application. Do not use the Restart option, as it sometimes does not pick up the changed value.

Stop and start the app

Wait for a minute for it to finish starting up, and you should now be able to connect to it using the new binding.
