Custom Domains
You can use your own domain with a website created in Sketch using Anima.
There are 2 steps to do that:
Create a CNAME and an ‘A’ record in your domain provider settings
Add your custom domain to your Anima Website Settings
1. Create a CNAME Record
Create a CNAME record that points your domain to our servers:
Type: CNAME
Host: www
Points to: ns1.animaapp.com
Next, we are going to setup the “naked” domain which is your domain but without the ‘www‘.
Create a new ‘A’ record:
Type: A
Host: @
IP Address: 35.164.217.247
Now, your websites should be accessible from:
❗️Important:
To avoid any conflicts, your domain provider’s settings should only have these two Anima records. Please delete any other existing record
Domain changes can take between a few minutes to a few hours to take effect
2. Add a Custom Domain
Next step is to add your domain to your Projects settings:
Go to your Projects dashboard
Go to your Project Settings
Go to the Prototype Link tab under Custom Domain
Enter your domain, including ‘www.‘, and click Add
Don't forget to click "Save Changes"
SSL Certification
If you need to setup SSL for your custom domain, please contact support@animaapp.com with your domain and Anima account email address.
