Setting up the custom domain for your server-side trackingThis involves choosing and preparing the domain that will collect and forward your server-side tracking events reliably.Configure a CNAME recordThe names of the fields and the required entries to configure the record may differ between DNS control panels, but we’ve covered the most common options here. If you're uncertain, please check with your DNS provider.
Type: Select CNAME as the type of DNS record you want to create.
Name (or DNS entry): This is where you enter your subdomain. You might need to enter it in full (e.g., dre2.example.com) or just the part before your apex domain (e.g., dre2). If you ’re not sure which format to use, consult your DNS provider.
Target (or Value / Destination): Enter the address where the subdomain should point.
TTL (Time To Live): This is the number of seconds that the DNS record can be cached. If you’re unsure what to set, we recommend selecting Auto or using the default value.
Please make sure to replace "example.com" with your actual domain name.
Note: A CNAME record cannot coexist with another record for the same name. If you already have an A, AAAA, TXT, or any other record for your chosen subdomain, you will need to remove it before adding the CNAME.
