Restricting available homeserver

If you want to have your Synapse Admin instance work only with specific homeserver(-s), you can do that by setting restrictBaseUrl in the configuration.

Configuration

You can do that for a single homeserver or multiple homeservers at once, as restrictBaseUrl accepts both a string and an array of strings.

The examples below contain the configuration settings to restrict the Synapse Admin instance to work only with example.com (with Synapse runing at matrix.example.com) and example.net (with Synapse running at synapse.example.net) homeservers. Note that the homeserver URL should be the actual homeserver URL, and not the delegated one.

So, if you have a homeserver example.com where users have MXIDs like @user:example.com, but actual Synapse is installed on matrix.example.com subdomain, you should use https://matrix.example.com in the configuration.

Configuration options

  "restrictBaseUrl": [
    "https://matrix.example.com",
    "https://synapse.example.net"
