Custom domains
On Pro and Team, a status page can be served from your own domain, for example status.example.com. TLS certificates are issued and renewed automatically.
Set up
In the status page settings, enter your domain, for example
status.example.com.At your DNS provider, create a CNAME record:
Type Name Target CNAME statuscustom.asniher.comWait for the record to propagate. With a low TTL this usually takes minutes.
Click Verify in Asniher.
After verification, the first visit to https://status.example.com triggers certificate issuance. This can take a few seconds once; after that the page loads normally. Renewal is automatic.
Your page remains available at https://<slug>.status.asniher.com as well.
Requirements and troubleshooting
- Use a subdomain. Most DNS providers do not allow a CNAME on the root of a domain (
example.com). Usestatus.example.comor similar. - Cloudflare users: set the record to DNS only (grey cloud). A proxied record hides the CNAME and prevents verification and certificate issuance.
- Verify fails: check the record with
dig +short CNAME status.example.com. It must returncustom.asniher.com.. Remove any conflicting A, AAAA or CNAME record on the same name. - CAA records: if your domain has CAA records, they must allow the certificate authority Asniher uses. If you are unsure, contact support before adding CAA restrictions.
- Plan: custom domains are available on Pro and Team only.
Removing a domain
Remove the domain in the status page settings, then delete the CNAME record at your DNS provider.
