How to add multiple domain name in Google App Engine by our user for white-label? - google-app-engine

I have website in Google App Engine and I pointed a domain name (Example : mywebsite.com) in custom domain panel. This is a SAAS project so my users / customer add their domain name for white label.
This is for a Google App Engine serverless cloud by Google. and I want to add customer domain names.
When I add Cname at my domain provider dns system.
I add Cname like track.otherdomain.com to -> www.mywebsite.com
when when I open track.otherdomain.com it's display error 404.
So How can my users connect their domain name to my app engine hosted website for white labeling / own branding. (SAAS)

How do I add a custom domain to my GAE app? Domain from GoDaddy

I bought a domain from GoDaddy.com and I've been trying to connect that as a custom domain to my app engine project.
My project is a static website made in python using the flask framework. I currently have the stock url provided but I want to connect a custom domain purchased from GoDaddy. I updated the records under manage DNS settings on GoDaddy with the ones provided when I mapped my domain in the App Engine settings. I followed this tutorial on Google Cloud documentation.
What am I doing wrong? The site shows up as can't be found when I try to access it through the custom domain.

Need to change appspot subdomain to custom domain

i want to change to a custom domain for my google app engine website.
I know already that i need to setup my records to CNAME at my domain provider for my already registered domain,
but i cannot find at the google app engine website where i can add a domain alias for my app.
thanks in advance!
Go to your google cloud account, click on your project, then go to compute, then app engine, then settings, then custom domains, then click 'add a custom domain', and here is where you can add an alias or subdomain to a domain you have already verified.

set up a custom domain name on Google App engine to use with SSL

I'm trying to set up a custom domain name on Google App engine to use with SSL.
I have a paid Google Apps account, the domain name is an Alias of my primary domain
I managed to set up the custom name via https://console.developers.google.com/project - > My project -> App engine -> Settings -> Custom domains
It works pretty well without https. But with https I have an error.
When I try https://appengine.google.com/ -> My project -> Application Settings -> Add Domain, I can select my domain name in the input box but when I click on "Add domain"
Google Ask to choose an account, I select my Google Apps account and I have this error:
You are trying to access Google Admin of example.com but you do not have a valid logged in account for it.
Sign into one of the existing accounts for example.com
This is weird because the domain name is an Alias as required by Google here: developers.google.com/appengine/docs/domain
I tried to do all this procedure in a clean browser with only the Google Apps account logged and I have the same issue.
Is it a limitation from Google or so?

AppEngine setup with custom domain + sub domains

I've purchased a domain name with GoDaddy and have some sub domains setup, ie:
www.example.com
status.example.com
store.example.com
I want to create three applications on AppEngine under a single account, ie:
example.appspot.com
status.appspot.com
store.appspot.com
I would like to point each domain to a different app, ie:
www.example.com -> example.appspot.com
status.example.com -> status.appspot.com
store.example.com -> store.appspot.com
The question is, what do I need to do to set this up?
Do I sign up to google apps and add example.com as my domain, then somehow link this to my appengine account, will the subdomains be recognized as belonging to my account or do I have to do some extra work to set these up?
You need to setup the domain with Google Apps (free version is fine), then add each of your apps to the domain. You can add the app from the domain management console dashboard (click "Add more services"). When you add an app to the domain you can set the URL in the domain's management console.
There is also a how to in the App Engine docs, it explains how to initial the process from your App Engine admin console. I prefer to just handle all of the steps from the domain's management console.

Google App Engine on Google Apps Domain

I'm having trouble getting my domain pointed to my website hosted with google app engine. Here's the background... take care to separate the concepts of "google apps" (domain hosting, email, etc.) and "google app engine" (website framework).
I have a domain that's using Google Apps for Your Domain, let's call it company.com. So my login for my google apps account is bob#company.com. I have a different domain that is aliased back to my google apps account, let's call it mycompany.com. It's been successfully aliased and registered with my primary google apps account using the cname method, and has updated mx records. We have a ton of domains, and I only want to use one "google apps" account to maintain them all.
Now I have a website I've built using google app engine, and the url is effectively mycompany.appspot.com. I want to get mycompany.com to point to my website that currently resides at mycompany.appspot.com.
There's a spot in the google app engine dashboard under application settings where you can add a domain. So I click there and enter mycompany.com and I get an error message saying that domain is not using google apps.
If I back up to the page I submitted, there's a note saying I need to register the domain with google apps. So I click the link to do that and enter mycompany.com and I get an error message saying the domain has been registered and is in the process of ownership verification. But that process is already finished.
So... what do I do? Does google app engine not support a domain that is only aliased to a primary google apps account? Does mycompany.com need to have its own primary google apps account?
I ran into this problem setting up my domain. It's a little counter-intuitive, but you'll want to add (in your example) company.com to your appengine account. Once you add company.com, you'll see a dropdown listing all of the domains that belong to your hosted google apps account, including mycompany.com.
