Gateway Settings
A gateway is the domain your users and their AI clients connect through. Gateway Settings is where you find those URLs, and where you add gateways if your organization needs more than the one it starts with.
Open Settings in the admin sidebar, then expand Gateway Settings.
Every organization has a Willow branded gateway from the start, so this section always shows at least one entry. The section header shows how many you have, for example (1 gateway).
What you can do
- Find your connect URL and run URL
- Add a gateway
- Set which gateway is the default
Your URLs
Each gateway provides two URLs:
| URL | What it is |
|---|---|
| Connect | The dashboard URL, where users sign in and manage their connections. For example https://acme.mcp-s.com. |
| Run | The MCP URL, which AI clients call to execute tools. For example https://acme.mcp-s.com/mcp. |
The subdomain comes from your organization slug, which you set in General. Select Dashboard on a gateway to open its connect URL.
Add a gateway
Select Add Gateway. The modal offers a Willow branded domain, a custom domain, and an external run service.
Multiple gateways are gated behind the Custom Gateway beta flag. Without the flag you keep your Willow branded domain; with it, you can add custom domains and external run services. See Beta Features.
For the full custom-domain workflow, including the CNAME record you need and what to expect while DNS propagates, follow Configure a Custom Gateway Domain.
Default gateway
When you have more than one gateway, one is marked Default Gateway. The default is the primary MCP endpoint your users connect to. A gateway can also be set as the dashboard domain, or left as a secondary gateway that works alongside your existing domain.
