DNS records and nameservers · Domains

Edit DNS records for your domains, or point them at another DNS provider.

Edit records

Open Domains, choose Manage next to a domain, and stay on DNS records.

Choose Add record, or edit or delete an existing one.

Use @ for the domain itself, or a name such as www or mail. End CNAME and MX targets with a dot, like example.com..

Choose Save changes. Saving publishes the whole record set to the registrar.

A / AAAA: Point a name at an IPv4 / IPv6 address, such as a VM or your hosting server.

CNAME: Point a name at another name, for example an App Platform app.

MX: Mail servers for the domain, with a priority (lower is tried first).

TXT: SPF, DKIM, DMARC and domain verification.

NS: Delegate a subdomain to other nameservers.

Changes reach everyone within the record’s TTL.

Nameservers

The Nameservers tab chooses who answers DNS for the domain:

Registrar DNS: manage records here, in the DNS records tab.

Custom nameservers: point the domain at Cloudflare, Route 53 or another provider (at least two nameservers). Records in the DNS records tab then stop applying; manage them at that provider.
