Subdomain redirect

[Bjunkz]

Hey!

I’m having trouble getting a redirect for a subdomain to work. I’m running a NextJS project and I have added a _redirect file in my public folder. I have a custom domain for my site which is brfmagelungen.se but the netlify address is https://brfmagelungen.netlify.app/

I want to redirect https://tvatt.brfmagelungen.se to an external link.

Any help will be much appreciated!

Best regards,
Björn

Hey there, @Bjunkz

Thanks so much for reaching out? Can you please share your project repo with us? If that is not possible, can you please share how you have configured your _redirects? This will help us investigate further.

For the redirect, I did find this other Netlify Support Forum post that may help with creating the redirect here of a subdomain to an external site:

How to Redirect a Subdomain to an External App

i have a blog hosted on netlify pretty simple to setup… i have set it so that my DNS is managed by netlify. i can create subdomain from the netlify control panel, but i dont know how to set it up so that a subdomain can point to a separate app (for example: hosted by aws) currently when i create a subdomain (test.my-blog.com), it simply points to the main site (my-blog.com), which is the same thing as not having a subdomain. i am looking at the documentation and it seems unclear to me so it w…

Additionally, we have a Netlify Next.js template and the Netlify Next.js plugin docs that has additional information on redirect here and here.

Let us know if you have any questions.
