Each local authority’s public url for BOPS Applicants needs to be mapped to the relevant bops-applicants url provided by Unboxed (such as https://buckinghamshire.bops-applicants.services/)

We cannot provide a static IP address because the services use Route 53 behind a CDN, so the technology team within the local authority should create a CNAME record on their DNS to map their subdomain as follows.

For example, Buckinghamshire has created a CNAME record:

https://planningapplications.buckinghamshire.gov.uk/

which has the value of

https://buckinghamshire.bops-applicants.services/

We need to have an SSL certificate for each of these records as the services use https.
