In the Domain textbox, type your domain (e.g. https://www.webiny.com).
Note: In this tutorial, we will use the domain where your web app is published. Please note that this domain is different from the one where your Webiny CMS runs. You can find the published web app domain by visiting any published page, such as the Contact Us page that we created in the Create Form tutorial (e.g. https://d3s7islumczq2q.cloudfront.net).

Under reCAPTCHA type, click Challenge (v2).
Under Challenge (v2), click “I’m not a robot” tickbox.
Under Domains, in the textbox, type your domain (e.g. webiny.com).
Note: Ensure that this domain matches the one you entered in Step 3, excluding http:// and https:// (e.g. d3s7islumczq2q.cloudfront.net).
Click SUBMIT.
