Updating and altering your client-facing URL is a terrific approach to bringing your brands together and giving your clients a more professional impression. In Sprout, you can quickly edit and update this as needed.

All your client-facing pages (i.e. galleries, album proofs, invoices, etc.) have their own URL so you can send a direct link to your clients.

For example, the URL for a gallery looks like this:

bryan.sproutstudio.com/galleries/sample-gallery

This URL is split up into four parts:

  1. The subdomain is your business subdomain (bryan above).

  2. The domain is the main URL of the link (sproutstudio.com above).

  3. The path is the path we've created for the link (/galleries/ above).

  4. The name, which is the name of the item you're sharing (sample-gallery above).

For your URLs, you can customize the subdomain and domain globally (for all your links) and customize the name for most items on a per-item basis.

To edit your subdomain, go to Settings > Branding > Brands > Your Brand, and edit the subdomain field in the "Main Settings" section under Brand URL. Click the pencil icon to make changes to your domain.

A relevant default is always given to an item's name based on the asset's name, but you can edit it by modifying the "Link" field when creating that item.

For example, when you're editing a gallery, there is a "Link" field under the "Save" section.

Note: Updating your brand domain will change all of your existing links. This includes any links you've sent your clients. Changing this option will mean you need to send each client a new link to their asset.
