Create a record on your zone apex
When you add a domain to Cloudflare, you may also need to create a DNS record on your zone apex (example.com).
To do this, create a corresponding A, AAAA, or CNAME record using @ for the Name.
| Type | Name | IPv4 address | Proxy status |
|---|---|---|---|
| A | @ | 192.0.2.1 | Proxied |
Domain redirects
Once you create a domain, you may want to route that traffic to other places.
For more guidance, refer to Redirect domain to subdomain or Redirect one domain to another.
