You are configuring a custom domain for an Azure App Service web app. You have purchased an SSL/TLS certificate from a third-party certificate authority. You need to configure the web app to use the custom domain secured with this certificate. Which sequence of steps should you perform? Move all actions to the active list and arrange them in the correct order.
- 1Create a CNAME record at your domain registrar pointing to the default hostname of the web app.
- 2Add the custom domain to the Azure App Service web app.
- 3Upload the private TLS/SSL certificate (.pfx file) to the App Service.
- 4Create a TLS/SSL binding for the custom domain using the uploaded certificate.
Answer
Create the CNAME record at your registrar, add the custom domain to the web app, upload the private certificate, and then create the TLS/SSL binding.
The correct order requires first creating the DNS record (CNAME) so Azure can verify ownership when mapping the domain. After mapping the domain, you upload the private certificate so it is available in the App Service environment. Finally, you bind the certificate to the domain to secure the connection.
