Can't connect Railway app to Cloudfare DNS

Hi,
I am having a problem connecting the DNS settings given to me by Railway to Cloufare, which now handles my DNS settings. I tried entering the information given to me by Railway, but Cloudfare says that a record already exists (but when I search all my DNS records, none of them match the information given by railway). Any advice or troubleshooting feedback is appreciated!

you do have duplicates there

duplicate by name, not by type


Are you referencing the A names being duplicates?


Should I delete them and just leave one of the A names?

you dont want any A types though


Why? Because of the IP addresses? Sorry I am new to this so I don't always understand what the different types are

Railway does not give you an IP address, they give you a CNAME


Oh yes, but when I try and put that CNAME in it says I have duplicates. The duplicates are the A types by name correct?

correct


So I should delete the A type records and then try to add the CNAME record?

correct


Let me try that and get back to you


That worked, thank you. Now when I go to mypetnote.com, it shows the railway project that I wanted to connect. Thank you so much!


Can you mark this as solved please?
