Deploy Your Domain

Important:

If you are using a secure domain, be aware that deployment includes setting up CNAME records for DNS verification with your domain provider as well as CNAME records for your website hosting. See Point Your Domain Name at Your Domain (DNS Settings) for information about setting up CNAME records with your domai provider and Set Up DNS Verification for information about DNS verification.

To deploy your domain:

  1. If you have not done so already, go to your domain provider's website to set up CNAME records for the hosting and DNS verification records. For more information, see Point Your Domain Name at Your Domain (DNS Settings).

    Important:

    Domain names should always point to a CNAME record. CNAME records must be correctly set up at all times to avoid issues with SSL certificates and securing your domain.

    Note:

    For information about setting up DNS verification records, see Set Up DNS Verification Records.

  2. After you have completed DNS configuration with your domain provider, return to the Domain record in NetSuite and click Save.

    If you had saved the Domain record previously, go to Commerce > Hosting > Domains > and click Edit next to your domain name, then click Save to trigger redeployment.

    Typical deployments go live in about 90 minutes. In exceptional circumstances, it can take up to six hours.

    You can track progress with the Deployment Status field, which changes automatically as the deployment and DNS propagation proceeds. To view deployment status, go to Commerce > Hosting > Domains > and click View next to your domain name.

    See Deployment Status for information about each of the possible deployment statuses.

    Note:

    You cannot make changes to the domain settings until the deployment status is Live.

After you set up your domain name in NetSuite and configure the DNS with your domain provider, your domain name begins redirecting to your website. The time it takes for your web store to go live on your domain depends on your domain provider. Typically, redirection takes place 2 – 48 hours after completing the setup.
