Adding a domain or subdomain without switching name servers

In order to add a domain name to our platform without switching to our name servers, you can add the following to your domain name’s DNS settings:

The following will only work if your domain name provider has Alias Records or CNAME flattening enabled, and you are able to provision an SSL ticket without server level access.

If you are using a subdomain name, you don’t need CNAME flattening or Alias Records, but you will still need to provision an SSL certificate.

Cloudflare’s free plan provides both of these services.
