Use Godaddy as nameserver instead of Netlify

PLEASE help us help you by writing a good post!

I’m trying to add a subdomain to my custom domain (From Godaddy) and map it with Netlify domain.
I’m not willing to manage my records via Netlify as I’ve already configured mail server and other stuff. And I’m not willing to change it by hand.

Is there any way to link my netlify.app to subdomain.example.com in Godaddy DNS page rather than in Netlify

Hey @tejas15802

Yes there is. Check out the external DNS documentation

I get an error as Not Found - Request ID: 01G4HE17EA2DZZ9R3GGRT58Q3X , when I visit the site after adding CNAME record

Have you added the domain as a custom domain to your Netlify site?

Yes I realized it later and added it now it works.
Thanks
