# Apply domain separation on dot walked fields

The **glide.sys.domain.include\_domain\_condition\_on\_join** property controls whether join queries are given domain separated conditions or not in order to ensure they apply domain separation functionality for dot walked fields.

The **glide.sys.domain.include\_domain\_condition\_on\_join** system property controls whether join queries are given domain separated conditions or not, in order to ensure they apply domain separation functionality for dot walked fields.

Ensure that the property **glide.sys.domain.include\_domain\_condition\_on\_join** is set to **true** when the Domain Separation plugin is active.

**Warning:** This is a safe harbor property, meaning the value can't be altered once it's changed. It is non-revertible.
