[Solved] Adding custom domain in digital ocean through console not available - Digital Ocean
- 0

- General

I tried to setup domain (with subdomain) and ssl certs in our server.
Lets say domain is
appwrite.example.com
i put it in _APP_DOMAIN
and _APP_DOMAIN_TARGET
everything (A, AAAA) is setup in digital ocean domains settings,
domain points to droplet ip - routing is correct
But when going through "create domain" process in appwrite i'm hitting wall in Add a CNAME Record
step - verification fails as well.
Im not able to setup given CNAME record because you cant setup CNAME to a ip in digital ocean domains controll panel (and this is what appwrite shows in value
field.
I want my overall subodmain setup to look like this: api.{domain} adminpanel.{domain} app.{domain}

You want all those domains to point to Appwrite?

no, only api.{domain} I started with appwrite and stuck with this setup

Then you only need to update the domain environment variables in your .env file. You should not be creating a custom domain in the Appwrite console

Got it, thanks
