Configure Cloudflare to point to AWS Amplify

Question

I use Cloudflare to generate SSL and AWS Amplify to host the project. I would like to configure Cloudflare to point to AWS Amplify project.

These are the current DNS records, which points to the current server.

This is the project URL and the URL where is project deployed on AWS Amplify.

I tried to changed DNS records to point website to AWS Amplify project, but it doesn’t work.

stuck at the same step; pointed my subdomain to `https://d1xxxxxxxxxx.cloudfront.net/` in cloudflare, but when I try to open this url in the browser, I get: `SignatureDoesNotMatch The request signature we calculated does not match the signature you provided. Check your key and signing method.` — Akber Iqbal, Sep 04 '20 at 10:37

For your AWS Amplify Domain, you do not need to use Proxied, as it's already secure connection (https://master.DIGITS.amplify.com)

Before you add your subdomain entry in your DNS you also need to add an entry in your DNS to verify the ownership of the domain

After you have done the above step, you can get the DNS record name like this:

you need to add this entry in your DNS like this:

I hope this helps anyone looking for it, I found it hard myself as well.

Follow the steps as mentioned in this link, but remove from Proxied to DNS only. You can achieve it by clicking on the yellow cloud icon.
