How to connect a custom domain
Open the website dashboard
Go to the chat where your website was built. Click the Dashboard tab in the website header, then select Domains from the sidebar.
Enter your domain
Type your custom domain in the domain field. This can be a root domain (yourdomain.com) or a subdomain (app.yourdomain.com).
Add the TXT verification record
Runable generates a TXT record you need to add at your DNS provider. This proves you own the domain.
Add this record at your DNS provider (Cloudflare, Namecheap, GoDaddy, Google Domains, etc.) and click Verify.
| Record type | Name | Value |
|---|---|---|
| TXT | _runable-verify.yourdomain.com | Your deployment ID (shown in the dashboard) |
Add DNS records to point your domain
After verification, add the DNS records to route traffic to your Runable website:For a subdomain (app.yourdomain.com):
For a root domain (yourdomain.com):
| Record type | Name | Value |
|---|---|---|
| CNAME | app | fallback.runable.site |
| Record type | Name | Value |
|---|---|---|
| A | @ | Cloudflare IP addresses (shown in the dashboard) |
Wait for SSL
SSL certificates are provisioned automatically once DNS records propagate. This usually takes a few minutes but can take up to 24 hours depending on your DNS provider.The dashboard shows the SSL status. Once active, your site is accessible at https://yourdomain.com.
DNS propagation can take anywhere from a few minutes to 24 hours. If verification fails, wait and try again.
Remove a custom domain
Go to Dashboard → Domains and click Remove. This disconnects the domain from your website. Your site remains accessible at its runable.site subdomain.What you cannot do
- You cannot connect multiple custom domains to the same website. One custom domain per deployment.
- You cannot manage SSL certificates manually. SSL is automatic.
- You cannot use a domain that is already connected to another Runable website.
