Coming soon: in final testingFree server subdomains isn’t offered yet. This guide is here so you know what’s coming.
A free address for your server
Every server can have a free address like friday.play.cosmicwarpview.com, on every plan, including Free. Give your friends the address instead of an IP: it's easier to remember, and it keeps working when your server moves.
Getting one
- Open your server in Warp View.
- Under Free address for your server, type a name (3 to 24 lowercase letters, numbers and dashes) and choose Get this address.
- It works within a minute or two. A brand-new address can take a few minutes more to reach everyone.
Some names are reserved (like www or admin), and names with offensive words aren't allowed.
Joining with it
- Minecraft Java: players type just the address. Minecraft finds the port by itself.
- Every other game: players add the port, like
friday.play.cosmicwarpview.com:2456. Warp View shows the full address to copy.
It follows your server
If your server moves to another machine, fails over to a standby (Machine Teams), or its machine's IP address changes, the address is pointed at the new place within 15 minutes. When you delete the server, its address is freed for someone else.
Changing or removing it
Choose Change to pick another name (the old one stops working), or Remove.
