I would love for weblinks to open in the same domain as the app’s custom domain. Right now I can only add an ‘open link’ action, but I think a web link would make it a better in-app experience. Thank you! ---

No one else finding this to be an issue? ---

Jen - can you give a specific example of this? If what you’re asking for is what I think you’re asking for, then it’s basically impossible (unless Glide takes ownership of the entire internet) 🙂 ---

Let say my app domain is hello.redpanda. com I want to open a webview to the URL redpanda. com ---

What’s stopping you from doing that now? ---

Okay, so how would the feature that you’re asking for solve that problem? I’m sorry, but I just don’t get it. ---

I’m not sure if it’s a setting in Glide that’s blocking it. ---

This is what I see which I click the weblink… ![Screenshot_20210414-121622_Chrome](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/b/8/b87fe365ac453a9d1d0c6fe77c9b1a408d259273.jpeg) ---

Would probably need to see the url to fully understand, but I would also make sure that your url has https instead of http. ---

Yes, it has HTTPS. It’s a standard URL nothing special about it. It’s the same domain as the app. I tried other URLs and it works. ---

And it works fine in a browser? It could be that it doesn’t allow itself to be embedded. You’d need to check with the website owner to find out if that is the case. ---

I am the website owner lol, I don’t have anything that should be blocking it, but let me double check with hosting provider. ---

In general, there is no reason why it shouldn’t work. In fact, I’ve done it myself. I have two Private Pro apps that are sharing the same custom domain, ie. - App1 is [foo.mydomain.example.com](http://foo.mydomain.example.com) - App2 is [blah.mydomain.example.com](http://blah.mydomain.example.com) I have App2 embedded inside App1 using a Webview component, and it works fine.
