🔗Custom Domain
You can link your own custom domain to the apps. This means that the app will be available on app.mydomain.com instead of app.notionapps.com, making it easier to promote the app with your branding when sharing it with others.
Subdomains under a root domain count as a single custom domain. For example, blog.mydomain.com and sales.mydomain.com will be counted as one custom domain.
However, if you have two apps, one linked with mydomain.com and the other with myseconddomain.com, these will be counted as two custom domains.
Update your DNS Settings
Below you can find the DNS settings that need to be included on your domain registrar's (GoDaddy, Namecheap, Google Domains, etc) or DNS provider's (Cloudflare, Netlify, etc) website.
Root domain records
For a root domain like example.com you'll need to add the following records:
| Type | Name | Value |
|---|---|---|
A | @ | 76.76.21.21 |
CNAME | www | cname.notionapps.com |
Make sure to remove any old A records or AAAA records for your root domain or old CNAME entries for www in your DNS settings if your provider does not do this automatically.
Subdomain records
For a subdomain like blog.example.com add this record:
| Type | Name | Value |
|---|---|---|
CNAME | (your subdomain) | cname.notionapps.com |
Make sure to remove any old A records for your subdomain or CNAME entries for the subdomain in your DNS settings if your provider does not do this automatically.
Adding your custom domain to your app
To add a domain to your app,
Open the NotionApps app builder
Go to App Settings
Add your custom domain to the input in the Custom Domain section
After entering your own domain address in the popup, if you haven’t already done so, you'll then need to make some changes to the DNS settings through your hosting provider.
You would need to change your DNS records through your domain registrar's (GoDaddy, Namecheap, Google Domains, etc) or DNS provider's (Cloudflare, Netlify, etc) website. For specific instructions, view the content inside the blocks above.
If you run into issues, please make sure that you have:
Added new DNS records to your domain provider
Removed old DNS records
Waited up to 24 hours for new settings to propagate
Troubleshooting
Problem
My custom domain shows an empty screen and I use CloudFlare as my DNS Provider/Proxy.
Solution
When Cloudflare proxy is on your site may show an error err_too_many_redirects.
This issue occurs when your Cloudflare SSL/TLS configuration is set to "Flexible". This will have Cloudflare send requests to NotionApps over HTTP and in response, NotionApps will send data back over HTTPS.
To keep all our connections secure you must request Cloudflare to only send requests over HTTPS. To fix this issue, the "SSL/TLS" option in Cloudflare needs to be set to "Full (strict)".
