I have a domain currently supplied by another provider (westwarwicks.co.uk ). I have a netlify website wwsc-club.netlify.app which I want this domain to now point to.
Separately I also purchased a netlify domain westwarwicks.club.
So I want westwarwicks.co.uk and westwarwicks.club to point to wwsc-club.netlify.app
What do I need to tell the other provider to provide to me or netlify for the transfer to work?
Regards, Andy

The DNS record types of NETLIFY and NETLIFYv6 are special “alias” records within Netlify DNS. They will return the IP addresses for the closest CDN nodes based on the IP address of the system making the DNS lookup.
