Introduction to CNAMEs

CNAMEs (Canonical Name Records) are used to brand links used with Click content with your company's domain name rather than Click's. Email links, links to Click Web Content records, and Social Post links can all have CNAMEs created to brand them differently. Whereas an Email link CNAME is recommended but not required for correct link functionality, both Web Content and Social CNAMEs must be set up for their corresponding content to function properly.
