Question

Difficulty: MediumDeploy and Configure Azure Container Apps

You are configuring a custom domain for a publicly accessible Azure Container App. You want to secure the custom domain with an SSL/TLS certificate.

In which sequence must you perform the steps to successfully configure and secure the custom domain?

  1. 1Retrieve the custom domain verification code and default fully qualified domain name (FQDN) from the Azure Container App.
  2. 2Configure the TXT verification record and CNAME record in your DNS provider.
  3. 3Add and verify the custom domain in the Azure Container App configuration.
  4. 4Associate a managed or uploaded SSL/TLS certificate with the custom domain.

Answer

The correct sequence is: first retrieve the domain verification code and FQDN from the Container App, next configure the TXT verification and CNAME records in your DNS provider, then add and verify the custom domain in the Container App, and finally bind the SSL/TLS certificate.
To successfully configure and secure a custom domain on Azure Container Apps, you must start by retrieving the unique verification code (asuid) and default FQDN. This allows you to create the required TXT verification and CNAME routing records in your DNS provider. Once the DNS records are active, you add the custom domain to the Container App, which triggers ownership verification. Finally, you secure the configuration by binding an SSL/TLS certificate.

Step-by-Step Solution

1
Retrieve verification details
Obtained the asuid verification code and FQDN from the Container App.
Azure requires these details to map your custom domain and verify your control over it.
2
Create DNS records
Created TXT and CNAME records at your DNS registrar.
Enables Azure's validation checks and ensures internet traffic routes to the Container App's default domain.
3
Add and verify the custom domain
Successfully associated the custom domain with the Container App.
The Container App checks for the presence of the TXT record to verify ownership before registration.
4
Bind the SSL certificate
Enabled HTTPS traffic securely on the custom domain.
Finalizes the setup to ensure secure, encrypted communication to the custom domain.
