A Content Security Policy (CSP) is a browser security feature that limits which origins a page may load scripts, styles, frames, images, and other resources from. It helps protect against cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks. When your feedback portal runs on your own domain, Sleekplan serves it with a default CSP that already covers the portal itself and the integrations we support out of the box. If you add your own third-party code to the portal (for example an analytics snippet or a support chat widget through Custom code), that code may load resources from origins the default policy does not allow, and the browser will block them. Custom CSP rules let you add those origins to the policy so your code works.
Custom CSP rules are an advanced feature. They require an Admin or Owner role, a paid plan, and a connected custom domain. On a free .sleekplan.app address the rules are saved but never applied. See Connect a custom domain first.

​
How custom rules are applied

Sleekplan adds your rules to its default policy. It never replaces it. For each directive you list, your origins are appended to whatever the default policy already allows, and any brand new directive you add is included as well. This means:
  • You only write the extra origins you need, not the whole policy.
  • You cannot remove or tighten Sleekplan’s own required sources. The portal keeps working no matter what you enter.
Custom CSP rules apply only to your hosted portal (the standalone site on your custom domain). They do not change the embedded widget on your own website. That page’s CSP is controlled by your site, which is a separate topic covered in Use the widget with a Content Security Policy.

​
Add your rules

1

Open the Portal settings

Go to Settings → Public Portal & Widget → Portal.The Portal settings page open in Sleekplan, with Public Portal & Widget expanded and Portal selected in the sidebar
2

Expand Custom code and find the Content Security Policy field

Scroll to the bottom of the page and open the Custom code section. The Content Security Policy field is the last one, below Custom JavaScript.The Custom code section expanded, showing the Custom JavaScript and highlighted Content Security Policy fields, with a notice that these need a custom domainIf your portal is still on a .sleekplan.app address, a notice reminds you that Custom JS and CSP only take effect on a custom domain. Connect one first for your rules to apply.

Enter the origins you want to allow

Write standard CSP directives, each as a directive name followed by the origins to allow, separated by semicolons. For example, to allow a support chat widget and an embedded YouTube video:
script-src https://widget.intercom.io https://js.intercomcdn.com;
connect-src https://api-iam.intercom.io wss://nexus-websocket-a.intercom.io;
frame-src https://www.youtube-nocookie.com;
Common directives are script-src (scripts), style-src (stylesheets), img-src (images), font-src (fonts), connect-src (network requests, including WebSockets), and frame-src (embedded iframes). Alongside origins you can use standard CSP source keywords such as 'self', https:, data:, and blob:.

Save

Click Save at the bottom of the page. Sleekplan validates your rules and, if anything is malformed, shows the error CSP directives are not valid. In that case, check for typos in the directive names and remove any HTML tags: the field accepts policy directives only, not markup.

​
Check that it worked

Open your portal on its custom domain and load the page that uses your custom code. Open your browser’s developer tools (right-click, then Inspect) and look at the Console tab. If a resource is still blocked, you will see a message like Refused to load ... because it violates the following Content Security Policy directive. The message names the directive and the origin that was blocked, so add that origin to the matching directive and save again.
Only add origins you trust. Every origin you allow can run code or load content on your portal, so keep the list to the specific services you actually use.

Custom domain

Host your portal on your own domain, which is required for custom CSP rules to apply.
