This will ensure that any DNS queries for are resolved with an IP from our service edge. You'll create a record of type CNAME where the name is foo and the value is your ngrok CNAME target. Every DNS provider has a distinct user interface but just by way of example here's what this interface looks like when setting up DNS records with Google Domains:

Head over to your DNS provider and create a new record on the domain.

Copy the value of your newly-added domain's CNAME target hostname, which will be something like. Once validated you can also add a Description, attach an Edge and select your TLS Certificate configuration (we recommend our automated TLS certificates).Īfter adding your domain you should see instructions related to creating a CNAME record. We currently call this process 'reservation' and you can do it from the domains page of your ngrok dashboard.Ĭlick 'New Domain' and then put into the form that appears to add that domain to your account. Add your domain name to your ngrok account Īdd your domain name to your ngrok account. In many cases your DNS records are hosted by your domain name registrar, but not always. To get working with an ngrok tunnel you'll need to perform one step within your ngrok account dashboard and one step with the DNS host for your domain name. Because we assign each of your custom domains a randomly-generated name under our domain to use as a CNAME record value, we usually recommend you choose a subdomain of your primary domain rather than the primary domain itself. First you'll need to decide exactly which DNS name you want to use. Let's assume you've registered a domain name like with a domain name registrar and you want to use it with ngrok. If you're already using ngrok with subdomains of ngrok.io but would like to have your tunnels available from a domain that you own, you're in the right place.
