Can't create an CNAME record with name @ to point to the cdn endpoint

Nicolás Sánchez Barrera 1

Hi, i have a CDN endpoint asociated with a blob storage account. The url of the endpoint is something like cdne-mywebsite-100.azureedge.net . I also have a DNS zone created for mywebsite.co domain with some MX records for my mail service, but i want to host my static website in a Storage account with a CDN for low latency.

Similar to this tutorial, but whitout two storage accounts (Or buckets) https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/dev/website-hosting-custom-domain-walkthrough.html

I want that when someone go to mywebsite.co the CDN attend the request. But im getting this error when i try to create the CNAME record with name @ that points to the CDN endpoint.

Does somebody know how to resolve this?

@Nicolás Sánchez Barrera Firstly, apologies for the delay in responding here and any inconvenience this issue may have caused. Kindly try the following steps to isolate the issue:
CNAME records cannot have @ in them,@ is only used for Apex , You can make Apex record , you can use Aliasing
Integrate a static website with Azure CDN
This article should give some idea on this scenario.
