I’m setting up a custom domain on firebase App Hosting with Namecheap.
I’ve successfully managed to synch TXT records – but verifying thru CNAME record does not work .
Firebase App Hosting ask for:
Record type CNAME
Host _acme-challenge_xxx.mydomain.com
Value yyy.authorize.certificatemanager.goog.
On Namecheap i’ve tried setting up both through _acme-challenge_xxx.mydomain.com and _acme-challenge_xxx (as Namecheap appends mydomain.com to CNAME record hosts)
When running dig +short _acme-challenge_xxx.mydomain.com
I get the correct value
However, firebase App Hosting cannot fetch the CNAME record – discovered values on the setup test is empty.
How can I set this up correctly?
Solution: Host should be _acme-challenge_xxx – remove the mydomain.com as namecheap appends the domain to host automatically
