Custom Domains
Once you design your site in Figma, Adobe XD or Sketch and Sync it to your Anima project, you can publish it using your custom own domain and host it with Anima!
Here are 3 steps how:
Create a CNAME and an ‘A’ record in your domain provider settings
Add your Custom Domain to your Anima Website Settings
Publish your project
1. Create a CNAME Record
Create a CNAME record that points your domain to our servers:
Type: CNAME
Host (Name): www
Points to (Value/Destination): ns1.animaapp.com
Next, we are going to set up the “naked” domain which is your domain but without the ‘www‘.
Create a new ‘A’ record:
Type: A
Host (Name): @
IP Address (Value): 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 records.
❗️Domain changes can take between a few minutes to a few hours to take effect.
2. Add a Custom Domain
The next step is to add your domain to your Projects settings:
Go to your Projects dashboard and open the project you want to publish
Go to your Project Settings (⚙️ symbol at the top-right corner of the screen)
Go to the Prototype Link tab and under Custom Domain, enter your domain name, including 'www'. Click Add
Enter your 'naked' domain name without ‘www‘ as well and click Add

3. Publish your website
Open any page of your project
Click Publish (If your project is already published, you'll see the button Visit site)
SSL Certification
If you need to set up SSL for your custom domain, please contact us via support@animaapp.com or in the chat with your domain name and Anima account email address.
