Custom Domains

FlareWatch supports two modes:

• Manual DNS: you add the CNAME record yourself.
• Automatic DNS: the wizard creates/updates the CNAME via Cloudflare API when permissions allow.

Manual DNS record format

The wizard shows the exact record preview. It is a CNAME that points to:

<status-page-worker>.<workers-subdomain>.workers.dev

Example:

Type: CNAME
Name: status
Target: flarewatch-status-abcd1234.mysubdomain.workers.dev
TTL: Auto

Automatic DNS mode

Automatic mode works only when FlareWatch can find and manage the target zone in your Cloudflare account. Use a token with DNS:Edit (DNS Write) and Zone:Read for this mode.

Verifying

After DNS updates propagate, open your custom domain and confirm it serves the status page over HTTPS.
