Note: If you are a reseller adding domains across multiple sub-accounts under the same parent account, we recommend you add domains via APIs. Check out the Domain Configuration reference doc for more information. If you are using the legacy Domains UI/API, refer to the Add a Domain (Legacy) guide.
To add a domain using the UI for a single account:
- Click Pages in the navigation bar and click Domains.
- Click Set Up Domain. A dialog box appears.
- You’ll need to register a domain with a provider before getting started. If you are ready, click I’m ready.
- Type your domain name in the text box. Then click Add Domain.
- At this point, you are given instructions on how to update your DNS records. You may need to hand these over to an IT professional at your brand to do so.
- Once you have updated your DNS records, click Verify Domain so that Yext can verify you own the domain. Feel free to leave this page. We’ll notify you once the domain is verified. You can also tell the domain has been verified as it will show as “Connected” on the Pages > Domains screen.
- Once your domain has been verified and you are ready to launch your site using this domain, click Yes, Launch Now. Select the site to attach your domain to and click Launch Site.
- Confirm the changes and click Launch Site.
- Your site is live! Click on the domain to view the live site.
