Provisioning DNS Records

DNS records provide information about domains such as IP address(es) associated with that domain, handling requests for the domain, and so on.

To add DNS records to your hosted zones:

  1. From the Domain Lifecycle section, click Add DNS Records.
    The workflow execution page is displayed in a new tab with the workflow inputs requested at the first stage.
  2. In the Requester Details section, in the Team DL field, enter the email addresses to which the domain registration email should be sent.
    Note: Multiple email addresses must be entered as comma-separated values. The field information for the first two fields will be fetched automatically from the logged in user information.
