title: Accessing Your Instance
|

category: usage
|
|
description: Learn how to access your PocketBase instances managed by
|
|
PocketHost using uniquely assigned UUIDs or your personalized subdomains.
|
|
Discover how these instances, crucial for running projects like web games, can
|
|
also be renamed for convenient accessibility. Future updates include
|
|
anticipated support for custom domains.

|
|
|
Your PocketBase instance managed by PocketHost is accessible in two ways:
|
|
|
|
1. `<uuid>.pockethost.io`
|
|
2. `<subdomain>.pockethost.io`
|
|
|
|
Every PocketHost instance is assigned a UUID that never changes, and a unique subdomain that you control and can change at any time.
|
|
|
|
> Example: I use PocketHost to run the backend for my web game named Harvest. I created a PocketHost instance and chose the name `harvest`. This is unique across all of PocketHost, and I can access my instance at `https://harvest.pockethost.io`. However, because instances can be [renamed](/docs/usage/rename-instance/), PocketHost also assigns a UUID that never changes. In this case, the UUID is `mfsicdp6ia1zpiu`. Thus, the instance permalink is `https://mfsicdp6ia1zpiu.pockethost.io`.

In the future, support for custom domains will be available. That is being tracked [here](https://github.com/benallfree/pockethost/issues/25).
