How to Configure the CNAME Record

Table of Contents

If you want to use your own domain (e.g., meet.yourdomain.com), follow these steps:

Steps to Configure CNAME #

  1. Go to your DNS provider (Cloudflare, GoDaddy, Namecheap, etc.)
  2. Add a new CNAME record with the following settings:
    • Type: CNAME
    • Name: meet (or any subdomain you want, like webinar, conference, etc.)
    • Value/Target: meeting.jitsihosted.app
  3. Save the record and wait for DNS propagation (can take a few minutes to a few hours)

Once configured, users can access Jitsi Meet at meet.yourdomain.com, and it will automatically resolve to our server at jitsihosted.app. This eliminates the need for a direct A record with an IP address, providing a cleaner and more flexible setup.
