Changes to US2 server URLs in August 2021
Initial announcement date August 6, 2021
Overview
To ensure the security and integrity of the Code42 cloud, we implemented a networking update on August 3, 2021 that resulted in the following URL changes:
- Code42 enterprise US2 cloud:
- Code42 console URL www.crashplan.com/console is now console.us2.crashplan.com
- Server address for Code42 app connections central.crashplan.com is now clients.us2.crashplan.com
- CrashPlan for Small Business:
- Code42 console URL www.crashplanpro.com is now console.us2.crashplanpro.com
- Server address for Code42 app connections central.crashplanpro.com is now clients.us2.crashplanpro.com
The previous URLs now automatically redirect to the new URLs. All bookmarks, settings, or scripts that use the previous URLs work without intervention on your part.
However, to ensure uninterrupted service going forward, we recommend that you change the old URLs to the new URLs. If you need help, contact our Customer Champions.

- Code42 enterprise customers with tenants in the US2 cloud.

What should I do?
Code42 enterprise
Code42 administrators
While all operations continue normally because of automatic redirects to the new URLs, we recommend that administrators with tenants in the US2 cloud update instances of URL www.crashplan.com to console.us2.crashplan.com in all locations where the URL appears to ensure continued uninterrupted service going forward. These locations may include:
- Bookmark links
- SSO and provisioning settings
- API scripts
- Deployment policy files
We also recommend that administrators change US2 deployments that currently use the central.crashplan.com URL to now use the clients.us2.crashplan.com URL.
Users of the Code42 app
No action is needed by users of the Code42 app. Connections that use the new URL continue uninterrupted.
However, for those Code42 app users that also sign in to the Code42 console, we recommend they update any bookmarks to the old www.crashplan.com/console URL to point to the new console.us2.crashplan.com URL.
CrashPlan for Small Business
CrashPlan for Small Business administrators
While all operations continue normally because of automatic redirects to the new URLs, we recommend that administrators update all bookmark links from www.crashplanpro.com to console.us2.crashplanpro.com.
CrashPlan for Small Business users of the Code42 app
No action is needed by users of the Code42 app. Connections that use the new URL continue uninterrupted.
However, for those Code42 app users that also sign in to the US2 console, we recommend they update any bookmarks to the old www.crashplanpro.com URL to point to the new console.us2.crashplanpro.com address.
CrashPlan for Small Business mobile app
No action is needed by users of the CrashPlan for Small Business mobile app. Connections that use the new URL continue uninterrupted.
Frequently asked questions
Service should continue uninterrupted for all Code42 enterprise and CrashPlan for Small Business customers. Going forward, however, for our US2 customers, we recommend updating to the new URLs to ensure continued service.
All operations should continue normally. However, we can't guarantee continued uninterrupted operation in the future if you use the old URLs.
Administrators of tenants in the US2 cloud should search for the previous URL addresses in all places where they can appear, such as:
- Bookmark links
- SSO and provisioning settings
- API scripts
- Deployment policy files
We made infrastructure changes to improve the security and performance of our servers. The new URLs resulted from these changes.
As we continue to make updates, other changes may occur that require you to take action. Regularly check our release notes to keep informed about changes that may impact you:
