DNS records setup

Connecting your subdomain to TagVolt takes a single CNAME record. Here is where to add it at Cloudflare, GoDaddy and Namecheap — and what to expect while it propagates.

The record you need

When you add a domain in TagVolt, the app shows the exact record to create. It always has the same shape:

DNS record — example

# type    host                  target
CNAME     tags.yourstore.com    your-container.tagvolt.io
  • Host — at most providers, enter just the subdomain part (tags), not the full domain.
  • Target — copy it from the app rather than retyping it.

Cloudflare

  1. Open your domain, go to DNS → Records, and click Add record.
  2. Choose CNAME, set the name to tags, and paste the target from TagVolt.
  3. Set Proxy status to DNS only (grey cloud), then save.

GoDaddy

  1. In your domain's DNS settings, click Add New Record.
  2. Set Type to CNAME, Name to tags, and Value to the target from TagVolt, then save.

Namecheap

  1. In Domain List, click Manage next to your domain and open Advanced DNS.
  2. Click Add New Record, choose CNAME Record, set Host to tags and Value to the target, then save.

Propagation

DNS changes can take up to 48 hours to propagate, though most finish within minutes. TagVolt checks automatically and flips the domain to Active once the record resolves and the SSL certificate is issued — no refresh needed. Still Pending after a few hours? Walk through Domain stuck on Pending.
