What records do I need for goDaddy to change the DNS for azure function

Developer-slam 0

I am trying trying to change the dns for an azure function that I just created using godaddy. I added a CNAme in Godaddy along with txt record however it does not seem to be resolving.

I am using Azure function consumption plan with windows container and NodeJS. How do I proceed?

Also, self managed cert is also not being resolved

Hi @Developer-slam ,

Welcome to Microsoft Q&A Platform!

To set up DNS for your Azure Function with GoDaddy, you need to create a CNAME record those points to your Azure Function's default hostname (like contosofunction.azurewebsites.net). If you're using a root domain, you should also add a TXT record for domain verification. Make sure the CNAME record is correctly configured in GoDaddy and that you save any changes. Keep in mind that it might take some time for the DNS changes to take effect.

If you're having trouble with a self-managed certificate, check that the CNAME record correctly points to the Azure Function hostname, as this is necessary for the certificate to work properly.

For your reference, please review the following documentations for further clarification:

Set up an existing custom domain in Azure App Service

I hope this answers your query! Let me know if you require any additional help or clarification.

Thank you for your response. I have already set up the CNAME record in GoDaddy, pointing go.abc.com to abc.azurewebsites.net. The DNS changes seem to have propagated.

However, when I try to access go.abc.com, it does not resolve and gives me a DNS_PROBE_FINISHED_NXDOMAIN error. I have waited for DNS propagation, cleared the cache, and tested from different networks, but the issue persists."

Could you help me troubleshoot why the CNAME record is not resolving despite being correctly configured and verified in Azure?
