Add a Custom Domain

By default your production instance is accessible at your-project.skysize.io. This guide shows you how to point your own domain to it.

note

Custom domains require the Admin role and a paid or trial plan.


Step 1 — Add the domain in Skysize

  1. Go to your project and open the Settings tab.
  2. Find the Custom Domains section.
  3. Enter your domain (e.g. erp.mycompany.com) and click Add.

Skysize will display a CNAME target for you to use in the next step.


Step 2 — Create a CNAME record with your DNS provider

In your DNS provider's control panel, create a CNAME record pointing your domain to the value provided by Skysize:

TypeNameValue
CNAMEerp (or @ for root)your-project.skysize.io

DNS propagation typically takes a few minutes, but can take up to 48 hours depending on your provider.


Step 3 — Cloudflare proxy (if your domain is on Cloudflare)

If your domain is managed through Cloudflare, the Cloudflare proxy is enabled by default in Skysize. This is the recommended setting — it provides DDoS protection, automatic HTTPS, and CDN acceleration at no extra cost.

Make sure the proxy is enabled (orange cloud icon) on the CNAME record in your Cloudflare dashboard.

If your domain is not on Cloudflare

If you manage DNS elsewhere (Route 53, GoDaddy, etc.), disable the Cloudflare proxy in Skysize:

  1. In your project Settings, find the Cloudflare Proxy toggle.
  2. Turn it off.

Your domain will still get HTTPS via Skysize's own certificate, but without the Cloudflare CDN layer.

caution

Disabling the Cloudflare proxy removes DDoS protection. Only disable it if your domain DNS is not managed through Cloudflare.


Verify the domain is working

Once DNS has propagated, open https://erp.mycompany.com in a browser. You should be redirected to your Odoo login page.

If it does not work yet, check:

  • The CNAME record is saved and pointing to the correct value.
  • DNS propagation has completed (you can check with dig erp.mycompany.com or an online DNS lookup tool).
  • The domain is added in Skysize settings and saved.
