Node.js Apps

Use your own domain on a Node.js app (with SSL)

Add your domain, create an A or CNAME record and we issue the Let's Encrypt certificate automatically.

Every app gets a free your-app.apps.fodenflow.com address with HTTPS. You can also add your own domains, with automatic SSL too.

  1. In your app → Domains, enter the domain (e.g. www.mybusiness.com) and click Add domain.
  2. We show you the DNS record to create. Go to wherever you manage the domain (or to Domains if you bought it from us) and create it exactly as shown.
  3. Once the DNS points correctly, the status changes to Issuing SSL and then Active. Click Verify to check right away.

Which record to use

  • Subdomain (www.mybusiness.com, api.mybusiness.com): a CNAME record with the subdomain name pointing to your app's free address.
  • Root domain (mybusiness.com): an A record named @ pointing to the IP shown in the dashboard.

DNS changes can take a few hours to propagate. If you see Error, make sure there's no other A or CNAME record for the same name.
