Create an LWR Site

Select the Build Your Own (LWR) or the Microsite (LWR) template to create an LWR site in Experience Cloud.
From Winter ’23, the way you create an LWR site has changed in two key ways.
  • Before Winter ’23, when you created an LWR site, you could create an authenticated or unauthenticated site, which affected the site’s URL. LWR sites created in Winter ’23 or later are authenticated sites by default and no longer include /s at the end of their URLs. See Custom URL Paths for LWR Sites.
  • From Winter ’23, new LWR sites and CMS workspaces that you create are hosted together on the enhanced sites and content platform, which offers partial deployment, site content search, and easy content management. See What Is the Enhanced Sites and Content Platform in Salesforce Help.
To create an LWR site:
  1. From Setup, in the Quick Find box, enter Digital Experiences, then select All Sites, and click New.
  2. In the site creation wizard, select Build Your Own (LWR) or Microsite (LWR), and click Get Started.Site creation wizard
  3. Enter a name and base URL value.

    The base URL value is appended to the domain that you created when you enabled Digital Experiences. For example, if your domain name is UniversalTelco.my.site.com and you’re creating a partner site, you can enter partners to create a unique URL UniversalTelco.my.site.com/partners.

  4. Click Create.

    After you create your site, the Experience Workspaces area appears.

You can also create the site programmatically through Connect API or using Salesforce CLI commands.
