[kpatel]

Any marketers here who has issue of not being able to upload file on root directory? Any solutions for push notification if anyone has found?

Hi, @kpatel.

We just added new functionality to the URL redirects tool which allows you to leverage proxy redirects to host files on the root directory of your HubSpot-hosted site. (Although the announcement was on March 15, I was notified of factors that hampered your use case, so I held off on posting here until I got three green light today.)

Per this updated article:

Proxy: select this type to redirect the content of your live page without changing the URL displayed on the visitor's web browser. This redirect type is often used to share a file that's hosted on a specific directory outside your main site.

If I understand the request from your original post correctly:

... this change should solve for your use case.

This is now possible by via URL Redirect using Proxy redirect style. Like in the case of uploading the service worker script from subscriber.com, you can just upload firebase-messaging-sw.js anywhere in your File Manager then add a url redirect in Settings > Domains & URLs > URL Redirect:

Any news on this feature?

Can you give us some idea of timeframe?

It is one of the key marketing channel for marketers in the age of push notification and hence, it has become extremely critical.

thanks.

Welcome, @K-Patel!

At this time, files still cannot be hosted on the root domain, but the team is planning to release support for this in the near future!
