Properties

A property instructs Edgio how to securely process requests for your website. Setting up a property typically involves:
  • Determining whether it will belong to an organization that allows collaboration with other team members or a private space with access restricted to your account.
  • Environment(s). An environment allows you to serve your site on different domains.
  • TLS certificate(s). Each hostname associated with an environment requires the installation of a TLS certificate on our network. Manage these TLS certificates through your property’s settings.
  • Securing your web applications and API traffic. Secure your web applications and APIs across all environments using a single configuration at the property level.

Managing Properties

You may create, rename, or delete a property.
Managing an organization’s properties requires the Admin role within the desired organization.
Upon creating a property, it will contain a production environment with the following configuration:
  • Hostname: Identifies a hostname through which your site will be served. Requests submitted by clients are directed to this hostname.
  • Origin Configuration: Defines how Edgio communicates with your web server(s).
By default, hostname(s) defined during property creation are assigned to the first origin configuration. Once you have added multiple origin configurations, you may adjust this mapping as needed.

Create a Property

The Edgio Console offers several methods to set up a new property, designed to accommodate different needs and deployment workflows. This streamlined configuration allows for quick deployment from a variety of starting points.
  • Create Self-Hosted Property:
    Place Edgio in front of your current self-hosted site to leverage Edgio’s features.
  • Create Edgio-Hosted Property:
    Deploy a new property using an Edgio template, connect an existing site hosted on GitHub, or use the Edgio CLI to create and manage your property.
