Control your own DNS
Use a custom domain with Fission and keep control of your DNS
By adding a TXT record for your app and a CNAME pointing at our gateway, you can run your DNS elsewhere but still have a custom domain for your Fission app.
For your domain,
YOURAPPDOMAIN.com, go into your DNS provider control panel and add a CNAME pointing to ipfs.runfission.com.Record | Type | Value |
@ (root) | CNAME | ipfs.runfission.com |
@ usually represents the "root" or domain apex. Some DNS providers don't support a CNAME for your root, so you'll need to add a CNAME for
www instead.The process for a subdomain is the same
SUB.YOURAPPDOMAIN.com, but looks a little different. Go into your DNS provider control panel and add a CNAME pointing to ipfs.runfission.com.Record | Type | Value |
SUB | CNAME | ipfs.runfission.com |
Next, add a TXT record pointing to your app subdomain. Your APPNAME is created when you run
fission app register, and will look something like junior-angular-tulip . We're creating a link to say that the content from your app should be served up your domain with a special dnslink record:Record | Type | Value |
_dnslink | TXT | dnslink=/ipns/APPNAME.fission.app |
Subdomains function the same way, with the _dnslink subdomain, where you're adding the TXT record being "above" the SUB.YOURDOMAIN.com record, which looks like this:
Record | Type | Value |
_dnslink.SUB | TXT | dnslink=/ipns/APPNAME.fission.app |
This process is not fully automated right now, so you'll need to send us an email
[email protected] or drop by our support page to send us a chat, and we can get things setup on our end.Last modified 1yr ago
