Azure DNS for country Domain - azure

I want to use my country domain which is mydomain.id after setting up in my azure DNS and domain provider, I still cannot validate my domain in App Service. I already double-check everything and I think my settings are already correct. Now I wonder can we use the Country domain in my azure DNS because I'm afraid if it's that the problem.

First of all, I assume you are using a public domain. As Martheen's comments mentioned that you just need to create DNS records to map your app service IP or hostname like webapp.azurewebsites.net in your DNS provider so that you can add custom domains in your App Service. This is tutorial.
Azure DNS is a hosting service for DNS domains that provides name resolution by using Microsoft Azure infrastructure. By hosting your domains in Azure, you can manage your DNS records by using the same credentials, APIs, tools, and billing as your other Azure services. You have the option to host your records on Azure DNS.
After adding the DNS records, you can use the local tool nslookup or websites https://dnschecker.org/ to check the DNS propagation. It can take up to 72 hours to propagate worldwide, although it typically takes a few hours.

Azure DNS Zone - unable to find CDN endpoint in list when adding record

I've setup a static site with Azure WebsiteCDN with custom domain, which works correctly for www.mysite.com
Now I'm trying to create an alias record set in DNS Zones (to point to apex domain) however the list is always empty:
Any ideas why it doesn't show up?
Mapping your apex or root domain to your CDN endpoint basically requires CNAME flattening or DNS chasing. There are other DNS providers as well that support CNAME flattening or DNS chasing, however, Azure CDN recommends using Azure DNS for its customers for hosting their domains.
Refer : https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/cdn/onboard-apex-domain
If you are using a different provider than Azure DNS, then you would need to contact the DNS provider and check if they support CNAME flattening or if there is any way to achieve this on their end.
If it is not supported with your DNS provider, then you could delegate your domain to Azure DNS and manage your DNS records in Azure DNS and here you will be able to create an Alias record which will help you onboard your apex domain to Azure CDN.
Please refer : https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/dns/dns-domain-delegation
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/dns/dns-delegate-domain-azure-dns
While selecting the CDN resource in alias record set, make sure you have selected the subscription in which the CDN endpoint is deployed.
Important Note : Pointing a zone apex to CDN endpoints for Azure CDN from Akamai is currently not supported.

Azure DNS CNAME records

I am trying to configure Auth0 custom domains with my azure web application. It is asking for a CNAME Record to be set.
I set this up in azure with a provided dns name, and set up the values as such:
but the verify button still does not work. i heard you may need to wait a few days for it to settle, but i waited all weekend with no luck. i saw in this post i may want to remove the NS and SOA types?
Wildcard and Naked CNAME records in Azure DNS
how can i verify this domain
As far as I know, you can not use the domain *.cloudapp.azure.com as the custom domain for your Auth0 as it is owned by Azure. You need to purchase a domain from the domain provider like Godaddy to configure your custom domain. Then you could validate that domain ownership.
You can't use Azure DNS to buy a domain name. Azure DNS is a hosting service for DNS domains that provides name resolution by using Microsoft Azure infrastructure. It's not necessary. You can selectly host your domain in Azure DNS.

How to change the DNS Zone nameserver in Azure?

How do I change the nameserver in a Microsoft Azure DNS Zone to be something else? I'd like to use Cloudflare for my nameservers instead of the default Azure ones.
As far as I know, you can not change Microsoft azure DNS name server. Azure DNS is a hosting service for DNS domains that provides name resolution by using Microsoft Azure infrastructure. But Azure DNS supports co-hosting domains with other DNS services.
To set up co-hosting, modify the NS records for the domain to point to the name servers of both providers. Read here.
For example, you can add name servers from Cloudflare in the additional name servers in the NS record on the Azure portal.
The Name Server (NS) update are done on the domain registrar side. In 'Azure DNS', Microsoft just manages the domain they are not the registrar.
If you want Cloud Flare to manage your domain the NS record needs to be change on the domain registrar side.
If you bought an Azure App Service Domain, you get a DNS Zone (mine didn't work properly, and that's how I got to my solution). You also get a second resource from the domain itself (the App Service Domain resource). If you there click on the tab Advanced Management portal you will be redirected to a different site. From there you can go to the DNS tab at the top, select Manage Zones and fill in the domain you want to control.
From there, scroll down, and you'll see something like this.
As you can see, there are two nameservers. Those nameservers point to Azures DNS system. But here, you can actually change the nameservers.

How to Forward a DNS subdomain in my DNS server to be fulfilled by Azure DNS

I have a set of DNS servers in my company that host many web sites. we are experimenting with hosting some of them in Azure. I would like to create a sub domain like xxx.myazure.mycompany.com where the DNS servers can forward the sub domain myazure zones to azure DNS, to be specific I would like to have my servers resolve all mycompany.com requests and have azure dns resolve all myazue.mycompany.com queries. Is this possible?
The following article describes how to delegate a sub-domain. In this example both zones are hosted by Azure DNS, but you should be able to use the corresponding workflow with the provider hosting your parent zone to achieve what you are looking for.

How do I provide my own FQDN for my hostnames?

I am searching the documentation on how I can provide my own FQDN to my hosts in Azure but don't seem to find what I need. How are you all setting your FQDN so that you can access your different host systems by that name instead of name.cloudapp.net
I essentially want to access it by machine.domain.tld (where domain.tld is my own domain name)
What you are looking for is probably the support documentation regarding DNS Services and configuration of Azure Cloud services.
Microsoft Azure Support Pointers
I found a support article on the configuration of a custom domain name for an Azure Cloud Service.
I am not sure if you are asking about configuring DNS for a Web Site service, which looks like it has different instructions so choose appropriately.
Make Changes with Your Domain Registrar
Depending on whom you have registered your domain name with, you will need to set up a DNS A Record and a DNS CNAME to get what you need.
The "A Record" is where the domain.tld value is assigned. It will be the same as your cloud service public-ip. The machine name represented in your assigned DNS address is associated with a Domain C-Name record established with your Domain name Registrar and pointed to your A Record.
Follow the instructions to also configure your cloud service settings. Pointing the domain name to your cloud service will not be enough.
