Partitioned Domains

With partitioned domains, My Domain host names for your Developer Edition org, demo org, patch org, sandbox, scratch org, or Trailhead Playground include a word related to the org type. For example, partitioned domains for Developer Edition and patch orgs include the word develop. Partitioned domains allow Salesforce to maximize the availability of your orgs by gradually rolling out delivery changes. And it’s easier to identify an org by a URL when the domain is partitioned.

Required Editions

Available in: both Salesforce Classic and Lightning Experience
Available in: Group, Essentials, Professional, Enterprise, Performance, Unlimited, and Developer Editions

Partitioned Domains are available in Developer Edition orgs, demo orgs, patch orgs, scratch orgs, and Trailhead Playgrounds with enhanced domains. Sandboxes with enhanced domains are always partitioned.

Only the sandbox partition is available in Government Cloud—Defense orgs.

Note
Note Qualifying new orgs get partitioned domains by default, and you can’t disable this feature in those orgs.

Partitioned domains allow Salesforce to gradually roll out service delivery changes by org type. For example, Developer Edition orgs can get an update separately from production orgs. This staggered approach maximizes the availability of production and sandbox orgs.

Note
Note The Salesforce content delivery network (CDN) is enabled by default for sites that use enhanced domains (*.my.site.com). However, Salesforce CDN isn’t supported for Experience Cloud sites that use partitioned domains.

My Domain uses partitioned domains for new orgs of these types, and you can enable partitioned domains in these types.

Org Type Partition Name
Developer Edition orgs develop
Demo orgs demo
Patch orgs patch
Sandboxes sandbox
Scratch orgs scratch
Trailblazer Playgrounds trailblaze

For example, the My Domain login URL format for a partitioned Developer Edition org is https://MyDomainName.develop.my.salesforce.com.

  • Enable Partitioned Domains
    To maximize the availability of your orgs, enable and deploy partitioned domains for your My Domain in your existing Developer Edition org, demo org, patch org, sandbox, scratch org, or Trailhead Playground. Partitioned domains allow Salesforce to gradually roll out service delivery changes by org type. When a domain is partitioned, it includes a word related to the org type, which also makes it easier to identify an org by a URL.
