  11. Paste the "http://socialize.gigya.com" URL to the "External URL" field, and "gigya.com" to the "External Callback Validation" field.
    Optional: If you are planning on configuring a domain alias (CNAME), please insert your alias sub domain (CNAME value) instead of 'socialize.gigya.com' and your domain instead of Gigya's domain. i.e. "http://[YOUR-ALIAS-SUB-DOMAIN].yoursite.com" in the "External URL" field, and "yoursite.com" in the "External Callback Validation" field.
    Note: please do not use https.

  12. Check the "I agree with the Terms Of Service" box and press "Save".
  13. Copy your OAuth Consumer Key and OAuth Consumer Secret (you will need to paste them in Gigya's website, as described further below in phase 2).
    Note: MySpace disabled copying the OAuth Consumer secret to the clipboard. Make sure to copy it manually or copy it from the page source.

  1. Go to the Dashboard section of Gigya's website.
    Note: If you are not signed in to Gigya, please go to http://www.gigya.com/ and sign in.
     
  2. Press the "Site Settings" button that corresponds to the domain you wish to configure. You will be redirected to the "Site Settings" page.
