Self-hostConnect Clients

Connect Individual Clients

By default, Bitwarden clients will connect to Bitwarden-hosted servers, but any client application can be configured to connect to your self-hosted Bitwarden instance instead.

note

If you are trying to connect to a Bitwarden-hosted server, but your client is attempting to connect to a self-hosted instance, select bitwarden.com or bitwarden.eu from the Logging in on menu.

To connect a browser extension to your self-hosted server:

  1. On the login or registration screen, select the Logging in on dropdown and choose the Self-hosted option.

  2. In the Server URL field, enter the domain name for your server with https:// (for example, https://my.bitwarden.domain.com).

  3. Select Save.

tip

Users with unique setups can specify the URL of each service independently in the Custom Environment section.
