Adding a Custom Domain Name adding-cdn
Learn how to add a custom domain name using Cloud Manager.
Requirements requirements
You must fulfill these requirements before adding a custom domain name in Cloud Manager.
- You must have added a domain SSL certificate for the domain you wish to add before adding a custom domain name as described in the document Adding an SSL Certificate.
- You must have the Business Owner or Deployment Manager role to add a custom domain name in Cloud Manager.
- You must be using the Fastly CDN.
Where to Add Custom Domain Names where
You can add a custom domain name from two locations in Cloud Manager:
When adding a custom domain name, the domain will be served using the most specific, valid certificate. If multiple certificates have the same domain, then the most recently updated is chosen. Adobe recommends that you manage certificates such that there are no overlapping domains.
The steps described in this document are based on Fastly. If you use a different CDN, you must configure your domain with the CDN you have chosen to use.

Tap or click Create to save the custom domain name in Cloud Manager.
Cloud Manager will automatically trigger a TXT verification when you select Create on the verification step of the Add Custom Domain wizard, so it is advised that you create the TXT record upon creation of the custom domain name in Cloud Manager. However, this is not required. For subsequent verifications, you must actively select the verify again icon next to the status.
The name will not be active until the TXT entry is added and is verified by Cloud Manager. Successful TXT verification is indicated by the status Verified and Deployed.
- See Adding a TXT Record to learn more about TXT records.
- See Checking Domain Name Status for more details on how Cloud Manager verifies the custom domain name and its TXT entry.
