Instead of status.obsy.ai/your-org, you can serve your status page from a custom hostname like status.yourcompany.com. Custom domains use Cloudflare for SSL certificate provisioning.

Prerequisites

  • Your domain’s DNS is managed by Cloudflare (or you can add a CNAME at your DNS provider pointing to Cloudflare)
  • You have access to add DNS records at your domain registrar or Cloudflare dashboard

Setup

Step 1 — Configure in Obsy

  1. Go to Status Page → Settings → Custom domain.
  2. Enter your hostname (e.g. status.yourcompany.com).
  3. Click Save.
Obsy creates a Cloudflare Custom Hostname record and begins SSL certificate provisioning.

Step 2 — Add a CNAME record

At your DNS provider, create a CNAME record: If your DNS provider requires a trailing dot: status.obsy.ai.

Step 3 — Wait for SSL provisioning

SSL certificate provisioning typically takes 5–15 minutes. The status in Obsy’s Status Page settings will show:
  • Pending — certificate is being issued
  • Active — domain is live and HTTPS is working
  • Error — check that the CNAME record is correct and propagated
Once the status shows Active, your custom domain is live.

Verifying

Visit https://status.yourcompany.com in a browser. You should see your Obsy status page with a valid SSL certificate.

Removing a custom domain

Go to Status Page → Settings → Custom domain and click Remove. Your status page returns to the default status.obsy.ai/{slug} URL. The Cloudflare Custom Hostname record is deleted automatically.

Troubleshooting

Verify the CNAME record is correctly set and has propagated. Use dig status.yourcompany.com CNAME to check. If the record is correct and it’s been over an hour, contact support@obsy.ai.
This usually means the CNAME hasn’t propagated yet. Wait 15–30 minutes and try again. Some DNS providers take longer to propagate changes.
Ensure there’s no conflicting DNS record (e.g. an A record for status that overrides the CNAME). Check for proxied vs DNS-only records in Cloudflare.
