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.

What do I need to tell the other provider to provide to me or netlify for the transfer to work?
Regards, Andy
