Add custom ingest domains

Last updated Apr 21, 2026 With custom ingest domains, you can configure your RTMPS feeds to use an ingest URL that you specify instead of using live.cloudflare.com.

Note

Custom Ingest Domains cannot be configured for domains with zone holds enabled.

  1. In the Cloudflare dashboard, go to the Live inputs page. Go to Live inputs ↗
  2. Select Settings, above the list. The Custom Input Domains page displays.
  3. Under Domain, add your domain and select Add domain.
  4. At your DNS provider, add a CNAME record that points to live.cloudflare.com. If your DNS provider is Cloudflare, this step is done automatically.

If you are using Cloudflare for DNS, ensure the Proxy status of your ingest domain is DNS only (grey-clouded).

Delete a custom domain

  1. From the Custom Input Domains page under Hostnames, locate the domain.
  2. Select the menu icon under Action. Select Delete.
