- the domain name must not be linked to a product and must be configured with our DNS
(to find your DNS:manager.infomaniak.com > Domain name > your-domain.com >DNS Management > DNS Servers)
Adding a synonym domain to a domain:
- open the Manager manager.infomaniak.com/
- go to Domain name
- click on the domain to which you want to add a synonym domain
