# Integrating reCAPTCHA

## What You Need to Integrate reCAPTCHA

### A Google account

You need to be the **owner of the account** to enable the integration.

### You Members Portal Web Address

If you don't have a custom domain/subdomain, you can find your Members Portal default web address by clicking [**Settings > Website**](https://dashboard.nexudus.com/settings/2/0/0) on the Admin Panel.

          Planning on using your own domain/subdomain?

          

Make sure you [add your custom domain in Nexudus](/v3/docs/using-a-custom-domain-for-your-members-portal) before enabling the reCAPTCHA integration.

If you already use a custom domain/subdomain as your Members Portal address, you will need to add your naked domain and its *www* subdomain.

**Example** *If your domain is **example.com**, you will need to add two addresses: **example.com** and **www.example.com**.*

## Integrating reCAPTCHA

Integrating reCAPTCHA with Nexudus is a two-step process.

### Step 1. Generating Your reCAPTCHA Keys

Before you can enable the reCAPTCHA integration with Nexudus, you need to generate reCAPTCHA keys using your Google account.

1. Go to [google.com/recaptcha/admin/create](https://www.google.com/recaptcha/admin/create).
2. Log in to your Google account if you aren't already.
3. Add a name for your key in the **Label** section.
4. Select **reCAPTCHA v2** and select the validation method of your choice in the **reCAPTCHA type** section.

          Always select reCAPTCHA v2 for this integration.

          

Our integration doesn't support any other version of reCAPTCHA.

1. In the **Domains** section, add your Members Portal web addresses in the following format:

**For default web addresses provided by Nexudus**

- **[your space name]**.spaces.nexudus.com

![defaultdomainrecaptcha.png](https://cdn.document360.io/4f9a66c7-3dbb-4052-97d8-5439302e1512/Images/Documentation/defaultdomainrecaptcha%281%29.png)

**For custom domains/subdomains**

- **example**.com
- www.**example**.com

![customdomainrecaptcha.png](https://cdn.document360.io/4f9a66c7-3dbb-4052-97d8-5439302e1512/Images/Documentation/customdomainrecaptcha.png)

*Where **example** is your actual domain/subdomain name.*

1. In the **Owners** section, add the email addresses of the people who should be able to access and edit the reCAPTCHA keys.

          The email address of the Google account owner is added by default.

          

1. Tick the **Accept the reCAPTCHA Terms of Service** checkbox.
2. If you want to be notified of any suspicious traffic or issue with reCAPTCHA, tick the **Send alerts to owners** checkbox.
3. Click **Submit**.

You'll be redirected to a page that displays both your site key and your secret key.

Keep this tab open in order to copy/paste the keys during the next step of the integration.

### Step 2. Adding reCAPTCHA Keys to Your Nexudus Account

Once you've generated your reCAPTCHA keys, all you need to do is add them to your Nexudus account.

1. Log in to [dashboard.nexudus.com](https://dashboard.nexudus.com/) if you aren't already.
2. Click [**Settings > Integrations > reCAPTCHA**](https://dashboard.nexudus.com/settings/integrations/recaptcha).
3. Enable the **reCAPTCHA integration** toggle.
4. Add your **Site key/public key**.
5. Add your **Private key**.
6. Click the **Save Changes** button.

All done! The integration can take a few hours to be fully live on your Members Portal.

          Any changes to your Members Portal web address requires an [update of your reCAPTCHA integration](/v3/docs/updating-recaptcha).

          

You need to update your reCAPTCHA integration **every time** you change your default web address or change your domain name.
