Hello,

I need help configuring custom domains/subdomains in Appwrite:

  1. Current Setup:
    • Transferred mydomain.com to Appwrite via nameservers ns1/ns2.appwrite.zone.
    • Added root domain at Organisation level.
    • Two projects: myProject (prod) and myProject_DEV (dev), each with sites/functions.
  2. Goal:
    • Dev:
      dev.mydomain.com → Primary site
      my_helper_site_1.dev.mydomain.com → Helper site
      my_function.dev.mydomain.com → Function
      api.dev.mydomain.com → API
    • Prod: Same structure without dev. prefix.
  3. Questions:
    • Do I only need the root domain at Org level, or separate entries for each subdomain?
    • What DNS records (A/CNAME) are required at root (Organisation) level?
    • How are SSL certs handled for subdomains?

Thanks for your guidance!

TL;DR
- Developer needs help setting up custom domains/subdomains in Appwrite for separate Dev and Prod environments. - Currently using nameservers `ns1/ns2.appwrite.zone` and added root domain at Organisation level. - Wants to configure multiple subdomains for different projects and functions within each environment. - Asks about needing separate entries for each subdomain at Org level, required DNS records (A/CNAME), and SSL certificate handling for subdomains.
