Enable Digital Experiences and Create Your Site

Enabling digital experiences is the first step to creating your Experience Cloud site.
Available in: both Salesforce Classic (not available in all orgs) and Lightning Experience
Available in: Enterprise, Unlimited, and Developer Editions

  1. From Setup, in the Quick Find box, enter Digital, and then select Digital Experiences | Settings.
  2. Select Enable Digital Experiences.
  3. If enhanced domains are enabled in your org, you see your digital experiences domain name. Otherwise, enter a name, and then to make sure that it isn’t being used, click Check Availability.
  4. Save your changes.
  5. From Setup, in the Quick Find box, enter Sites, and then select All Sites.
  6. Click New.
  7. Select a site template. For this example, select Build Your Own (LWR).
  8. Click Get Started.

  9. We recommend that you don’t provide a URL suffix for your site. That way, you’re not required to remember it every time you need the Experience Cloud domain.

    Note

    Enter a name for the site. For this example, name the site Headless Demo.
  10. Click Create.
    Your site opens in Experience Workspaces.

Keep your site open in Experience Workspaces for the next step.
