# Stash Latest (2.12) : Specifying the base URL for Stash

Created and last modified by pwatson on Oct 22, 2013

This is the base URL for this installation of Stash. All links which are not from a web request (for example in Stash email notifications), will be prefixed by this URL. If you are experiencing trouble with setting an `https` base URL, please ensure you have configured Tomcat with SSL correctly.

To specify Stash's base URL:

1. In the Stash administration area, click Server settings (under 'Settings').
2. In the Base URL field, type the URL address of your Stash server (for example, "https://stash.mycompany.com").
3. Click Save.
