# IC Gateway

For sites hosted on the Internet Computer through 4EVERLAND, we use the Internet Computer's main gateway, built by the DFINITY foundation.

## Using the gateway

Very simple, anyone can use this gateway with their IC canisters.

{% hint style="success" %}
The DFINITY IC public gateway is:

`identity.raw.ic0.app`
{% endhint %}

## Path style

The "path style" URL places the Canister ID in the path section of the gateway URL, as follows.

`[CANISTER_ID].raw.ic0.app`
