You need to setup a CNAME record. See our docs: https://docs.railway.com/guides/public-networking

Go daddy ask me for CNAME & IP address

Is that necessary

I only got the CNAME

This depends on the domain being a root (domain.com) or subdomain (example.domain.com)

Godaddy does not support cname flattening; you may need to use cloudflare to handle DNS for you: https://docs.railway.com/guides/public-networking#adding-a-custom-domain -> search for "godaddy"

Hey eyalyehiely, everything you need can be found in the public networking documentation that itsrems linked above.

Here are the steps necessarily to add your root/apex domain with GoDaddy:

  1. Change your domain's nameservers to Cloudflare's by adding your domain to Cloudflare (you will need a Cloudflare account, create one if you haven't already). Cloudflare's docs regarding this: https://developers.cloudflare.com/dns/zone-setups/full-setup/setup/.

  2. Add the root/apex domain to the desired Railway service and add the requested CNAME record for your root/apex domain via Cloudflare.

  3. If you have enabled Cloudflare's proxy, change the SSL/TLS settings to Full. Railway's docs regarding this: https://docs.railway.com/guides/public-networking#provider-specific-instructions.
