I created a small Flask script which I can easily push into GCP and it is viewable on example.appspot.com. I have also bought a custom domain via hostpoint.ch and set all A/AAAA/CNAME DNS records to values in GCP > Settings > Custom domains as described in the tutorial
I did this a long time ago so there is not a problem with propagating of DNS settings across the internet
The error message shown when accessing my custom domain is DNS_PROBE_FINISHED_NXDOMAIN.
Are there any other settings I should change?

I have one Node aplication runing on default App Engine service. Its was runing on "urlFromWebSite.appspot.com", and I config it to run in my domain url "customUrl.ai".
I built a second service with Node with name "second-service",and its runing at
"service-two-doturlFromWebSite.appspot.com", but i want to run at "subDomain.customUrl.ai"
I tried dispatch.yaml file with the url that i want for 'second-service';

At custom domains I config my subdomain url, and it generates the DNS. ยด
I have question here:
Where should I add this DNS config? At the "customUrl" or should i create a new record set for it?
I have been strugling with it for 2 days already, and could figure it out how to solve it. How should i config this to change my second service's url for a custom subdomain?
When user enters customUrl.ai in a browser, traffic should be routed to Google's servers (for your GAE project). To do that, you configure DNS settings on your domain registrar's end.
When user enters subDomain.customUrl.ai in a browser, traffic should be routed to Google's servers. To do that, you also configure DNS settings on your domain registrar's end.
Both #1 & #2 are done for the same domain on your domain registrar's end (which is GoDaddy in your case). I believe this is what #JohnHanley is referring to. Put another way - just go to GoDaddy, find your domain and create entries corresponding to what GAE has outlined for you. If they are duplicates, GoDaddy will tell you.
I am running a flask application on Google App Engine Standard.
I have not found a resource which states that Google App Engine provides a static IP address. I am trying to route my domain name, let's call it 'mydomain.com' to hit the google app engine endpoint, which Goole provides as something similar to https://my-appengine-name.appspot.com/
I have verified the domain with Google and selected it as a custom domain.
If https://my-appengine-name.appspot.com/ was a numerical IP address I could simply route my domain i.e. 'mydomain.com' to the numerical IP address in the A name record. However, as from what I understand app engine has dynamic IP addresses for APP engine and so this is not possible.
What are my options here to route 'mydomain.com' to Google's App Engine domain: 'https://myappenginename.appspot.com/
' then?
In addition of John comment, if you choose the root domain of your service (in the example, my own domain gblaquiere.dev, a list of IPs (and 1 CNAME) is provided and you have to update your registrar with them
If you absolutely want only one IP to register, you can create an HTTPS Load balancer in front of App Engine and create a serverless NEG backend
Although #guillaume posted correctly above I just wanted to reiterate the steps explicitly. Generally someone asking such a question is a newbie to GCloud and it helps to have explicit steps.
At the App engine dashboard click on settings.
From the settings, click on ADD Custom Domain
To add a domain you needed to verify your domain with Google already, either through adding a TXT record or another method offered by Google (if you haven't registered your domain with Google). This verification can happen almost immediately with Registrars like namecheap.com or name.com (as per my experience)
Then go back to this custom domains area in the Google App Engine console and you will be provided with a list of verified domain you can select to route to your App Engine.
Once you have done this Google will provide you with a series of A, AAAA and a CNAMe record which you will need to update at your Registrar, generally in the advanced DNS settings.
This should definitely be sufficient. I think my struggle resulted due to a problem with my deployed app which I misdiagnosed as a problem with the DNS routing. Thanks for the previous responses which assisted me.
I successfully configure custom domain for my application on Google App Engine. I can access my app by going to : http://www.myapp.com/.
However, on my custom domain dashboard, Google-Managed SSL is getting a lot of time to activate (I have a loading circular progress that is spinning for 2 hours now).
Before adding custom domain, it says that auto generated SSL can take several minutes to be activated. It has been two hours now. Is it a normal behavior ?
I removed the custom domain and retry the process from the beginning (validating, adding the custom domain) and certificates have been generated in 1 minute.
I have my domain with Google Domains. When adding a subdomain only add the 'sub' portion, e.g. sub.domain.com, only the 'sub' is added as a CNAME record. Same with 'www' for the main domain e.g. www.domain.com. I had previously added 'sub.domian.com' which gcloud App Engine DNS couldn't find.
After validating the domain to google DO NOT rush the SSL certificate adding process. Wait one hour or two after validation, then proceed to add the certificate.
I have deployed a Java Web application on Google Cloud platform and have purchased a domain and SSL Certificate from GoDaddy.com.
Its a simple application with a login page and a registration, where a specific(only one user) will have login credentials and post login will submit a form which will be saved in google DATASTORE in Google Cloud Platform(GCP).
I have two queries here :
1)
My application works perfectly,on my machine and even few machines around my home (as i have verified in few cyber centres around) but not at a client place located in different city(150 miles away). I'm not sure,as the client is not running any firewall or any browser plugin, as i have not visited the client place yet.
The call is as below.
Domain purchased from godaddy.com is : "ABC.in"
App engine project linked to this domain is : "web-abc"
If we hit "ABC.in" in browser it will in-turn call "web-abc.appspot.com".
in the background.Now though the login page loads,the client complains that the next subsequent pages does not load and page becomes blank.But for me in my system it works perfectly,as i can see the updated DATASTORE in GCP.
2)
Once i configure my DNS at GoDaddy.com, i'm unable to make any changes to the project hosted on GCP app engine.So i decided to create a new project and host it on the GCP. But GCP app engine page does not show any option to replace a project as it showed me during my first project setup.
I need to replace project "web-abc" linked to "ABC.in" with "web-pqr".
Please Please help...!
Thanks
To answer your second query you can just rest your CNAME record in the GODADDY DNS configuration and add the web-pqr reqq. That should work. Rest of the question< i really don't get it. Please share some error message or the screenshot when you try make change to your exiting project.
I followed the steps detailed here to use a custom domain with google app engine.
I'm the admin of the Google Apps account
I'm the owner of the Google App Engine account
I've added the domain to my Google Apps account through my App Engine account
I see my App Engine app in my Google Apps account
I set the CNAME "test" to point to ghs.googlehosted.com
I added the web address under my Google Apps account and it says "Your users can access my-app-id at: test.mydomain.com
Now when I go to http://test.mydomain.com, it redirects to https://test.mydomain.com and I get an SSL connection error (Unable to make a secure connection to the server.)
I called Google Apps customer support because I have a paid business account, but the customer service guy said that this falls under App Engine support and he was not trained in this issue.
Help!
If you've done everything correctly, you should be able to access your site at http://test.mydomain.com. It sounds from the error you're getting that you're attempting to access it at https://test.mydomain.com (https as opposed to http).
If you want to access your app over SSL at your custom domain, you have more setup to do, as documented here: SSL for a Custom Domain. The steps necessary are many and subject to change; that link is the official source of current information on the matter.
Update: From your updated information, it sounds like you may have secure: always set in your app.yaml, or the Java-configuration equivalent of this setting. It would be helpful if you posted your configuration file.
Also note that it takes several minutes for Google to add a certificate on a domain you recently imported (it may require time for DNS configuration to spread). I personally didn't need to add any secure: configuration, it just worked after some time.
