    @pleodev1

    I don't think you can turn off access to the website via [your cloud service name].azurewebsites.net domain.

    However what you could do is include a rewrite rule in your web.config, so that whenever someone tries to access your website via azurewebsites.net domain, they are automatically redirected to your custom domain.

    How to: Redirect the default *.azurewebsites.net domain to your custom domain on Azure Web Apps

    Setup custom domain URL
