If your users access their Udemy Business accounts through your company’s network, your organization’s IT may need to allowlist several domains and subdomains to ensure some features operate correctly.
This article outlines which domains and subdomains may need to be allowlisted for certain, Udemy Business features.
Note: It is important to allowlist these domains as seen with the wildcard DNS records, so that any potential changes to Udemy subdomains will not cause a disruption in operation of any related Udemy Business features.

Allowlisting content (video streaming)
If your users experience significantly degraded performance (i.e., playback delays) while streaming videos and viewing content through your company’s network, the video streaming domain Udemy Business utilizes should be allowlisted.
To ensure your users can view Udemy Business content without any issues, please have your organizations’ IT allowlist the following video streaming domain on your network firewalls/gateways: *.udemycdn.com.
Still encountering streaming issues? If the problem persists after your organization’s IT has allowlisted this domain, please advise your users still encountering the issue to reach out to Udemy Business Support and have them provide our team a HAR file. The information in the HAR file will help our engineers in determining what the issue is so they can start working on a resolution.
