Use of Remote Sites

[snesson]

I recently deployed My Domain for my client. I re-established the connection between CONNECT and Salesforce and transactions are being posted correctly.

In identifying things that might be impacted by My Domain, I noticed their Salesforce instance has two remote sites: CnP_MDAPI and CnP_MDAPI_BaseURL. Both refer to an old instance (one prior to the instance they were on before I deployed My Domain). What are those remote sites used for? Can I delete them? They are using CnP PAAS version 9.2104250027.

Thank you.

Good day @snesson

Remote sites are used for the C&P Event application to give the sharing rules for the site guest user. Either you can edit the CnP_MDAPI_BaseURL and update the URL with a custom domain OR delete it and click on Sync under C&P Settings > About C&P Apps which will create a new Remote site with your custom domain.

Hope that helps. Please let us know if we can be of any further assistance.

My client is not using C&P Events. They are using PaaS only. I have deleted the 2 remote sites and do not plan to recreate them at this time. Please let me know if there's any problem with this approach. Thank you for your help.

If you are not using Events then no worries.
