To have the domain start with api, is this the correct setup?

Wouldn't the name be api?

It worked with my namecheap domain, so I'm guessing it's the domain provider of the client?

The actual domain? or the way I set it up

the way you set it up

On railway I added both the domains the same way

api.ranbprep.com
gives me this DNS record, which I believe is incorrect no?


andremaytorena

As api.andremaytorena.com

gives me a record with the name of api, not @

you would be given a CNAME for both domains, both for api


andremaytorena

Yes but that's not what it gave me

andremaytorena

It says to input the record to my domain, that's all?


andremaytorena

Apologies if I don't see it, just confused why this one says differently than my api.andremaytorena.com, I didn't change the process at all

the value is incorrect, please see the yellow text


andremaytorena

Yes I see that, ranbprep.com is incorrect, what does that mean though? what's incorrect about it?

I setup my vercel domain in the same way with dashboard. instead and it works fine

it's the wrong value, you need to use the value you are given


andremaytorena

I need to use this value:
820tefm6.up.railway.app

That's the one railway gives me


andremaytorena
PROOP

9 months ago

I understand that, I setup api.andremaytorena.com just fine using the value it gave me


andremaytorena
PROOP

But then why is it giving me to use @ for the name instead of api?

andremaytorena

When I try to set it using those instructions my client gets this error


andremaytorena
PROOP

Ok so that's my question, the name should be api not @?


brody
EMPLOYEE

9 months ago

yes, that is the subdomain you are using


andremaytorena
PROOP

9 months ago

alright, not sure if you understand what I'm trying to get at though, when I set api.andremaytorena.com it told me to use name api


andremaytorena
PROOP

9 months ago

is that not a dash error? that it tells me to use @ name when I inoput a subdomain of api


brody

if it works its not to be worried about, no need to overthink this


andremaytorena

Alright I know but I don't have access to the domain, so I prefer to know what will work before I have my client changing the records over and over again


andremaytorena

Trying with api now


andremaytorena

andremaytorena

Just added another domain and it's working fine, not sure why this one isn't


andremaytorena

Actually now the status went back to issuing tls certificate


andremaytorena

Is it normal for it to take this long to issue a tls certificate? usually its a few minutes


brody

looks like WP.com was still serving that domain when we attempted to issue a cert.

you will need to redo the setup.
