# Which Problems Are Solved
ZITADEL currently selects the instance context based on a HTTP header
(see https://github.com/zitadel/zitadel/issues/8279#issue-2399959845 and
checks it against the list of instance domains. Let's call it instance
or API domain.
For any context based URL (e.g. OAuth, OIDC, SAML endpoints, links in
emails, ...) the requested domain (instance domain) will be used. Let's
call it the public domain.
In cases of proxied setups, all exposed domains (public domains) require
the domain to be managed as instance domain.
This can either be done using the "ExternalDomain" in the runtime config
or via system API, which requires a validation through CustomerPortal on
zitadel.cloud.
# How the Problems Are Solved
- Two new headers / header list are added:
- `InstanceHostHeaders`: an ordered list (first sent wins), which will
be used to match the instance.
(For backward compatibility: the `HTTP1HostHeader`, `HTTP2HostHeader`
and `forwarded`, `x-forwarded-for`, `x-forwarded-host` are checked
afterwards as well)
- `PublicHostHeaders`: an ordered list (first sent wins), which will be
used as public host / domain. This will be checked against a list of
trusted domains on the instance.
- The middleware intercepts all requests to the API and passes a
`DomainCtx` object with the hosts and protocol into the context
(previously only a computed `origin` was passed)
- HTTP / GRPC server do not longer try to match the headers to instances
themself, but use the passed `http.DomainContext` in their interceptors.
- The `RequestedHost` and `RequestedDomain` from authz.Instance are
removed in favor of the `http.DomainContext`
- When authenticating to or signing out from Console UI, the current
`http.DomainContext(ctx).Origin` (already checked by instance
interceptor for validity) is used to compute and dynamically add a
`redirect_uri` and `post_logout_redirect_uri`.
- Gateway passes all configured host headers (previously only did
`x-zitadel-*`)
- Admin API allows to manage trusted domain

Even though this is a feature it's released as fix so that we can back port to earlier revisions.
As reported by multiple users startup of ZITADEL after leaded to downtime and worst case rollbacks to the previously deployed version.
The problem starts rising when there are too many events to process after the start of ZITADEL. The root cause are changes on projections (database tables) which must be recomputed. This PR solves this problem by adding a new step to the setup phase which prefills the projections. The step can be enabled by adding the `--init-projections`-flag to `setup`, `start-from-init` and `start-from-setup`. Setting this flag results in potentially longer duration of the setup phase but reduces the risk of the problems mentioned in the paragraph above.
