A DID (Decentralized Identifier) is a temporary account state before you get your final Olares ID. You can only associate a custom domain with the account when it is in the DID stage. To create one:

  1. In the LarePass app, go to the account creation page.

  2. Tap Create an account.

    This creates an Olares account in the DID stage. On the Switch account page, it displays as "No Olares ID bound" with an identifier like did:key:xxxx.

The following steps use space.n1.monster as an example custom domain.

  1. In Olares Space, go to the Domain management page and select Set up domain name.

  2. In the pop-up dialog, enter a valid subdomain, and click Confirm.

    Do not use a primary domain

    Using a primary domain like yourdomain.com will move all DNS management to Olares Space and will not transfer your existing records automatically. Use a subdomain like app.yourdomain.com instead.

  3. Add and verify a TXT record to prove ownership of the domain.

    a. Click Guide in the Action column. Verify TXT b. In your DNS provider's settings, add a TXT record with the name and value provided in the dialog.

    Once verified, the status updates to Awaiting NS record configuration. Domain status updated to Awaiting NS record configuration

  4. Verify the Name Server (NS) record for your custom domain. This delegates the DNS resolution for your domain to Olares's Cloudflare.

    a. Click Guide in the Action column.

    b. In your DNS provider's settings, add two NS records for your subdomain with the values provided in the dialog.

    Once verified, the domain status will update to Awaiting the application for the Domain's Verifiable Credential. Domain status updated to Awaiting the application for the Domain's Verifiable Credential

    WARNING

    Once verification is successful, do not modify the NS record. Doing so will cause the custom domain resolution to fail, making it inaccessible.

Once TXT and NS records are verified, you can proceed to create an organization in LarePass.
