Custom Domains

Every app gets a default *.apps.apply.build subdomain. You can also add your own custom domain.

Adding a custom domain

  1. Go to your app's Settings page
  2. Under Domains, click Add Domain
  3. Enter your domain (e.g. example.com or app.example.com)

DNS configuration

After adding a domain, you need to update your DNS records.

For subdomains (e.g. app.example.com)

Create a CNAME record pointing to your app's *.apps.apply.build subdomain:

app.example.com  CNAME  your-app.apps.apply.build

For apex domains (e.g. example.com)

Create an A record pointing to Apply.Build's IP address. The exact IP is shown in the domain setup flow.

Verification

Apply.Build verifies domain ownership automatically by checking your DNS records. Verification usually completes within a few minutes, but DNS propagation can take up to 48 hours.

TLS certificates

Once your domain is verified, Apply.Build automatically provisions a TLS certificate. Certificates are renewed automatically before they expire.

Removing a domain

Go to your app's Settings page, find the domain under Domains, and click Remove. The TLS certificate is revoked automatically.
