Connect a domain

Open Settings to find the website’s domain connection controls. You need connection-management permission and access to the relevant infrastructure account. Follow the checks for the exact hostname and review any proposed DNS replacement before confirming. Verify the website at its HTTPS address after setup. Connecting a domain does not publish draft content. Until you publish to a ready domain, use Preview website with your existing View permissions. Disconnecting the domain makes the website private and retains its saved content and publication history; there is no public Cloudflare-address fallback. If verification is pending or fails, use the displayed status and check the account and hostname; the assistant cannot administer domains.

Open Studio, then choose your website to open Website Manager. Controls depend on your access.
