To use a custom domain, you must configure a CNAME record with your domain registrar or DNS provider that points to the provided target address. This process essentially tells the internet that your custom subdomain (e.g., app.your-domain.com) is an alias for the service's address (custom-domains.aifunnels.ai)

How to Set Up Your CNAME Record

Here's a general guide on how to configure your CNAME record. The exact steps and terminology may vary slightly depending on your DNS provider (e.g., GoDaddy, Cloudflare, Namecheap).

1. Access Your DNS Settings: Log in to your domain registrar or DNS provider account. Look for a section related to DNS settings, DNS management, or zone editor.
2. Add a New Record: Find the option to add a new DNS record. This might be a button labeled "Add Record," "Add DNS Record," or a similar phrase.
3. Choose the CNAME Record Type: From the dropdown menu of record types (A, AAAA, MX, TXT, etc.), select CNAME.
4. Enter the Host/Name: In the Host or Name field, enter the subdomain you want to use. If your custom domain is app.your-domain.com, you would enter app. The domain name (your-domain.com) is typically added automatically.
5. Enter the Target/Value: In the Value or Target field, enter the provided address: custom-domains.aifunnels.ai.
6. Save the Record: Click Save, Add Record, or Create to finalize the changes.

Important Considerations

• Propagation Time: After saving the record, it can take anywhere from a few minutes to 48 hours for the changes to propagate across the internet. During this time, your custom domain may not work correctly.
• No Multiple CNAMEs: You cannot have a CNAME record and other records (like an A or MX record) for the exact same host name.
• Troubleshooting: If your custom domain isn't working after a few hours, double-check that the host name and target value are entered correctly. You can use online tools like dig or nslookup to verify your DNS records.
