Adding a subdomain to an azure web app service

Question

Hello!

I have a few web apps hosted in azure, with the endpoint example.azurewebsites.net.

I'm trying to add a subdomain to that endpoint for another web app called examplepeter.azurewebsites.net.
The result endpoint would be peter.example.azurewebsites.net that would redirect to examplepeter.azurewebsites.net.

Are there any documents about that process? I have only found adding a subdomain to a custom domain like example.co, but none for subdomains within Azure.

Thanks!

Answer 1

The azurewebsites.net domain is provided as a simple free dns & ssl solution, it doesn't support this scenario.

I'd suggest;

1. Buy a domain, and leverage custom domains to facilitate the configuration
2. Leverage 2 regular azurewebsites.net domains in the two different apps
3. Use one Web App, and create virtual directories for each app.
   examplepeter.azurewebsites.net/app1 and examplepeter.azurewebsites.net/app2
