thanks for the incredibly helpful video, very clear and precise. How would this work for the App services which are behind an Application gateway? do I always have to do 2 DNS changes? Have CNAME/A Record pointing to Web App first to get the Custom domain registered then change the DNS again pointing to AGW?
Nice video, do you have one that covers the SSL/Cert conversion stuff you mentioned? Also how do you handle when the cert needs renewal, is that automated or do you have to manually add a cert every 3 months?
If you're talking about some thing like Let's Encrypt, check out something like this: www.hanselman.com/blog/securing-an-azure-app-service-website-under-ssl-in-minutes-with-lets-encrypt
You can deploy multiple apps in a single app service in deployment slots, however I wouldn't do that. You pay for an App Service Plan, and you can carve that up into as many App Services as it will support.
@@Atmosera- I understand that you woulnt do that, but when the application is new that you might not get enough traffic or users in a year maybe, to have one app service per app with custom domains and SLL is expensive. Once the app is starting to gain momentum, you can move it to other app service isolated. Thanks for your answer :)
A single app service plan can host multiple app services. You don't pay anything extra for 2 app services over one. SSL certificates are free. The domain is what you pay for. I'm not sure using a custom domain in the app service solves that problem with multiple apps though. So the only real cost is the domain. I'd still use separate app services in that case. The custom domain can be a sub domain.
@@Atmosera- If an app service can host multiple app services, then could make sense. I am not very experienced with it, i have to play and see the combinations :). Thanks
It can sometimes take up to 24 hours to complete depending on the DNS caching and your DNS provider. Give it time of it appears to be stuck or try the alternate method.
i stuck on how to validate domain, because i dont registar the domain yet ??? my question is how i purchase domain in azure from zero not have registar domain
By turning off Cloud flares proxy traffic to your domain will bypass Cloudflare's network and directly connect to your origin server. Cloudflare will only act as a DNS provider, resolving your domain to the configured IP address. Essentially not using Cloudflare, making this 'how to' useless, any domain registrar can have you directly connect to your DNS through azure custom domains by doing this you're just adding extra steps involved.
why tf would you not show us how to use the let's encrypt to create the pfx file. Like is this a tutorial or are you just bragging that you can create an ssl website?
This was the perfect Video I needed for my upcoming task. Thank you so much!! Wonderful explanation & your pace was great
Really very helpful this video for my current requirement
That intro :) :) must hv been cool when u first saw it
Awesome explanation. Thanks a bunch!

docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/application-gateway/configure-web-app-portal
Then you could put your custom DNS on the IP of the Application Gateway.
Awesome video! Many thanks!

@@Atmosera- Thanks, exactly what I was looking for!
Can you have multipe apps under one app service with different domains each? Or app service can only host one app? :) Thanks for the content!

Hi there,
It's really amazing , do you offer any course like DevOps ?
Thank you
We do. In person and online.
Thanks for this video, may I know from where I can get the pfx certificate password?
You make that up whenever you create the PFX file from your .crt/pem files or export it from Windows Certificate Manager.
@@Atmosera- Actually I have created the certificate in Azure Key Vault, exported it as a pfx and same cert I am trying to Upload in azure app
I got stuck in the domain part I don't know why it doesn't verify if I put everything the same
can you help me!!

How to find the nameservers of the azure app service we create, in order to point the ns records in registrar?
You don't. You point the registrar to you App Service's FQDN using an CNAME record. You'll also need to verify you own the domain with a TXT record.
I have a domain hosted in azure app service, how do I setup a custom email for the website?
You need to create n MX record in your DNS settings and point that to an email host like O365 or Zoho.
How can I add www to my dns?
Use a CNAME record for the URL generated for your App Service.
i stuck on how to validate domain, because i dont registar the domain yet ??? my question is how i purchase domain in azure from zero not have registar domain
You can purchase a domain through Azure. It's not free though.
Otherwise you'd need to use a DNS TXT record with your registrar's management systems.
thanks for the info
This works for Free trial

There's a few ways to do that. Use openssl or import/export into the cert store on Windows.
