Dear Azure Support,
How to add cname record into a subdomain at DNS zone in Azure ?
Here is my issue
1) My client have a domain ("mydomain.com") registered at godaddy.com.
2) I want to deploy app0 under "app0.mydomain.com" subdomain.
3) So i created a public DNS zone for "app0.mydomain.com" at DNS zone in Azure.
4) i have added the 4 NS records from Azure DNS store into Godaddy apex ".mydomain.com".
everything was working fine. i was happy.
But when i want to enable https , i saw a big problem.
My backend is App Service (app0)
My Frontend is FrontDoor.
because FrontDoor is offering free ssl certificate.
but when i set the ssl at front door ,
it asking me to set "app0.azurefd.net" as CNAME record at "app0.mydomain.com"
So i went into DNS zone try to add CNAME record .
but i dont' know how ?
so i went into Godaddy panel , tried to add CNAME "app0.mydomain.com" point to "app0.azurefd.net".
but godaddy is not allowing.
now Azure also not allowing (may be i dont know)
godaddy also not llowing
how can i do that ?

We are encountering a similar issue in our domain as described by @Kannuswamy. The document provided by @SaiKishor-MSFT does not address our specific concern. The main issue revolves around the auto-validation of certificates.
Here’s a detailed overview of the problem:
**xyz.com**, registered with GoDaddy.**myfe.xyz.com**.Request for Assistance:
@SaiKishor-MSFT Can you advise on how we can set up auto-renewal of certificates in Azure given our current setup? Specifically, we need guidance on the correct process for creating and managing certificates with auto-renewal in Azure, considering the limitations we are facing with CName records and NS records.
Hi,
In your godaddy, just add CNAME to app0 then point it to app0.azurefd.net.
It is not allowing because, your Godaddy will append the domain to the value which you provide.
@msrini-MSFT We can't add a CName over there because we already have an NS record pointing to app0.azurefd.net, So if we try to create a CName it will show a conflict.
