Domain Management

Domain Management allows you to connect custom domains to your Web Services, manage DNS configuration, and automatically secure applications with SSL certificates. Every deployed Web Service on Antryk receives a free default antryk.app domain automatically. You can also attach your own custom domains, configure DNS records, and verify domain ownership directly from the dashboard. This makes it easy to launch production-ready applications with branded URLs and secure HTTPS access.

Default Antryk Domain

When you deploy a Web Service, Antryk automatically generates a default public URL for your application. Example:

my-api.onantryk.com

This default domain is instantly available after deployment and includes:

Automatic HTTPS
Public internet access
Load balancing support
Production-ready routing
Zero manual DNS setup

Benefits of Default Domains

Instant application access after deploy
Great for staging and testing environments
No DNS configuration required
SSL certificates enabled automatically
Works seamlessly with autoscaling infrastructure

Every Web Service receives a unique antryk.app subdomain by default.

Custom Domain Management

You can connect your own domains and subdomains to Web Services directly from the Antryk dashboard.

Supported examples

api.example.com
app.example.com
www.example.com
backend.yourcompany.com

This allows you to use professional production URLs for APIs, SaaS platforms, dashboards, and customer-facing applications.

Features

Attach Custom Domains

Connect domains and subdomains to your deployed applications in a few clicks.

Automatic SSL Certificates

Antryk automatically provisions and renews SSL certificates after successful domain verification.

DNS Verification

Verify domain ownership securely using DNS records.

HTTPS Enabled by Default

All verified domains automatically receive HTTPS support.

Multiple Domain Support

Attach multiple production or staging domains to the same service.

Real-Time Verification Status

Monitor SSL provisioning and DNS verification status directly from the dashboard.

Adding a Custom Domain

To attach a custom domain:

Open your Web Service dashboard
Navigate to the Domain Management tab
Click Add Domain
Enter your custom domain name
Configure the required DNS records
Wait for verification and SSL provisioning

Once verification completes, your domain becomes active automatically.

DNS Configuration

Antryk provides complete DNS configuration instructions directly inside the dashboard. When adding a domain, you will receive the required DNS records such as:

CNAME records
A records
TXT verification records

These records help connect your domain securely to Antryk infrastructure.

Example DNS Records

CNAME Record

Use CNAME records for subdomains like:

app.example.com

Example

Type	Name	Value
CNAME	app	cname.antryk.com

A Record

Use A records for apex/root domains like:

example.com

Example

Type	Name	Value
A	@	76.76.xxx.xxx

TXT Verification Record

Some domains may require verification records.

Example

Type	Name	Value
TXT	@	antryk-verification=xxxxx

DNS propagation may take a few minutes depending on your DNS provider.

SSL Certificates

After DNS verification succeeds, Antryk automatically provisions SSL certificates for your domain. SSL certificates are:

Automatically generated
Automatically renewed
Configured with HTTPS
Managed without manual intervention

This ensures secure encrypted traffic between users and your application.

Domain Verification Status

The dashboard shows live domain verification and SSL status indicators. You can monitor:

DNS propagation
Verification progress
SSL certificate issuance
HTTPS activation
Active production domains

This helps developers quickly troubleshoot DNS configuration issues.

Troubleshooting Domains

Domain Not Verifying

Ensure DNS records match exactly
Check for DNS propagation delays
Remove conflicting DNS entries
Verify nameserver configuration

SSL Certificate Pending

Wait for DNS propagation
Confirm domain points to Antryk infrastructure
Recheck verification records

HTTPS Not Working

Verify SSL provisioning completed
Ensure DNS records are correct
Retry verification from dashboard
Incorrect DNS configuration can prevent your application from becoming publicly accessible.
