I can't link my domain name to my hosting provider
There are two ways to connect your domain name to your hosting provider:
Forwarding your domain name or subdomain
- Pointing via DNS records:
Your host will need to provide you with the DNS records (A and/or CNAME type) you'll need to set up to point your domain to their platform. Once the required DNS records have been set up at Gandi, wait a few hours for them to propagate.

- Linking to the host's name servers:
You can link the domain to your hosting provider's name servers. Once you have modified the nameservers on your Gandi account, please allow 12 to 48 hours for this change to propagate. Warning! In this case, the DNS records will be managed by the hosting provider: if you use the GandiMail service, be sure to configure the necessary records [MX / TXT(SPF) / CNAME(DKIM)] on your hosting provider's name servers.
