💡 **Note**: the latest version of synapse-admin is hosted by [etke.cc](https://etke.cc/) at [admin.etke.cc](https://admin.etke.cc/). If you only need this service occasionally and trust giving your admin credentials to a 3rd party Single Page Application, you can consider using it from there and avoiding the (small) overhead of self-hosting.
## Adjusting DNS records (optional)
By default, this playbook installs Synapse Admin on the `matrix.` subdomain, at the `/synapse-admin` path (https://matrix.example.com/synapse-admin). This makes it easy to install it, because it **doesn't require additional DNS records to be set up**. If that's okay, you can skip this section.
If you wish to adjust it, see the section [below](#adjusting-the-synapse-admin-url-optional) for details about DNS configuration.
## Adjusting the playbook configuration
To enable Synapse Admin, add the following configuration to your `inventory/host_vars/matrix.example.com/vars.yml` file:

### Adjusting the Synapse Admin URL (optional)
By tweaking the `matrix_synapse_admin_hostname` and `matrix_synapse_admin_path_prefix` variables, you can easily make the service available at a **different hostname and/or path** than the default one.

## Adjusting DNS records
If you've changed the default hostname, you may need to create a CNAME record for the Synapse Admin domain (`admin.example.com`), which targets `matrix.example.com`.
If you've changed the default hostname, **you may need to adjust your DNS** records to point the Synapse Admin domain to the Matrix server.
See [Configuring DNS](configuring-dns.md) for details about DNS changes.
If you've decided to use the default hostname, you won't need to do any extra DNS configuration.
When setting, replace `example.com` with your own.
