🌐Your Own Domain

Learn how to set up a custom domain with an app in Discloud

πŸ“Requirements

To start using your domain at Discloud, you need to meet the following requirements:

  1. You need a Diamond Plan or higher.

  2. It is necessary to have an app that already uses a subdomain.discloud.app, which will be necessary to establish a connection with your own domain.

  3. Furthermore, you must already have a domain name :) If you don’t know where to acquire your domain, we suggest the following domain registrars such as GoDaddy, Cloudflare, namecheap, or others.

🌐Add your domain

  1. Log in to your Discloud dashboard and select Custom Domain

  2. Enter your domain name, and select the desired subdomain, and click Register

βœ…Verify your domain

The first thing you have to do after adding a custom domain is to show Discloud that you control this domain.

You can do this by adding TXT records with a unique code that Discloud has generated to your domain’s DNS records in your registrar’s domain management portal.

In these docs, we only focus on the setup with Cloudflare

Log in to your Cloudflare account and select the domain you would like to use.

Select the DNS tab β†’ Add record. Enter the following values:

  • Type: CNAME

  • Name: @ (If the @ value is not accepted, enter your domain instead)

  • Target: hosting.discloud.app

Open the Domain Configuration window in Discloud. Copy the Name / Value text and paste it into a Cloudflare record, do the same with the 2 TXT lines.

Expected result

When adding only your own domain, it is expected that Cloudflare will show the following result:

If you chose to add a subdomain to your domain for use with Discloud, the expected result is that Cloudflare will display the "name" values with the name of the configured subdomain. For example, if you created a subdomain called "dash.yourdomain.com", the result would look like this:
