Thanks for that.

 

This is an article from nearly 7 years back. I've seen it before, however, was hoping that Microsoft would've added this feature.

 

Is this still the case or has Microsoft added the option to have vanity domain in private sharepoint online collections?

 

Thanks,

    No, unfortunately. You can create a cname on DNS

     but that is about it. This is one of the reasons why choosing a good tenant name is important.

      I even tried to access onedrive.contoso.com after adding it as a cname to contoso.onedrive.com.

      However, the only one that works is mail.contoso.com to outlook.office365.com.

      I tried to add myspo.contoso.com to point to contoso-my.sharepoint.com, but it didn't work. It gave me this error:
