Change / update our instance name

[Dave Longley]

Hello,

 

Our company is going through a re-brand and i was wondering how feasible it would be to be able to change the name of our Hornbill instance from Company A (https://live.hornbill.com/companyA) to Company B (https://live.hornbill.com/companyB)

Many thanks

Kind Regards

Can we Change our InstanceName

It is possible should you wish to change your InstanceName at a later date, however the following must be considered.

• Change will be made and old InstanceName retired. There is no redirection from old to new.
• Any @live.hornbill.com email address will also be changed to include the new InstanceName. There is no redirection from old to new.
• Any not relative Hyperlinks contained within comments or calls may not function.
• Any not relative Hyperlinks contained within comments or calls may not function. (Note all Hornbill added links will be OK)
• Downtime is required. Normally this is around 30 minutes, however the more data you have the longer this takes.
• Any SSO profile may need to be updated.
• Any Push data imports may need to be reconfigured.
• BPMs should be checked to ensure they do not contain any hardcoded URLs
• Email templates should be checked to ensure they do not contain any hardcoded URLs

Hornbill allows 1 change of InstanceName without cost, subsequent changes will be charged. It should be noted that InstanceNames are provided on first-come first-served basis and Hornbill retains the right to reject an Instance Name if it is felt to be inappropriate.

Although it is possible to undergo a Instance Name change without any professional services, we do recommend engaging with the team as they can then perform a full review of your system to highlight any of the above areas that may be of concern.
