Custom Domains

You can use your own domain with a website created on Sketch, Adobe XD or Figma using Anima.

There are 2 steps:

  1. Create a CNAME and an ‘A’ record in your domain provider settings
  2. Add your custom domain to your Anima project settings

❗️IMPORTANT
We are not a Custom Domain provider. You first need to get a domain from GoDaddy, Google Domains, or any domain provider.

1. Create a CNAME Record

In your domain providers’s settings, create a CNAME record that points your domain to our servers:

  • Type: CNAME
  • Host: www
  • Points to: ns1.animaapp.com

Next, we are going to setup the “A” record which will allow visitors to access your website without inlcuding ‘www‘.

Create a new ‘A’ record:

  • Type: A
  • Host: @
  • IP Address: 35.164.217.247

Now, your websites should be accessible from:

  1. http://yourdomain.com
  2. http://**www**.yourdomain.com

❗️Important:

  • To avoid any conflicts, please delete any other CNAME and A records on your domain provider’s settings.

  • Domain changes can take between a few minutes to a few hours to take effect.

2. Add a Custom Domain

Next step is to add your domain to your Projects settings:

  1. In Anima, go to your project
  2. Click the cogwheel icon in the top right corner to access the project settings
  3. In the Prototype Link tab, enter your domain twice: one with ‘www.‘ and without ‘www’. the domain
  4. Click “Add”
  5. In the top right corner click on “Publish to www…”

SSL Certification

If you need to setup SSL for your custom domain, please contact support@animaapp.com with your domain and Anima account email address.
