Reusing DNS in Azure - azure

Is there a way to just point our DNS to an existing Azure App Services IP? Right now our site is using .azurewebsites.net but we don't want that and want to use our own domain name. Is there a way to do this? As much as possible we dont want to make name server changes or anything. Is there a way to point our DNS to the IP of our App Service?

Just as juunas pointed out in the comment, you can follow the map custom domain document to configure a custom domain for azure service.
You can use Azure DNS to configure a custom DNS name for Azure App Service.
Type the fully qualified domain name that you added a CNAME record for.

Azure DNS for country Domain

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 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.

Delegate Subdomain to Azure via CNAME

the company I’m working for provided me a subdomain. test.mycomp.com . I want to add it to my azure web app via custom domain.
The azure system recommends a CNAME delegation and provided me the information to enter web-zeudz-staging.azurewebsites.net in the dns management as CNAME.
After doing so and verifiying via DNS Lookup, Azure always gives me „Domain Ownership Error“. What can I do to make this work?
Is your DNS provider also a CDN provider, for example cloudflare? If so, turn off the CDN/proxy function so it's a DNS only record and try again.
If you don't have any control over the CDN function you can use txt record validation.
Create your TXT record awverify.subdomain.test.mycomp.com with value web-zeudz-staging.azurewebsites.net and validate again. It should succeed.
There's also a CNAME awverify method but you need CDN disabled for that too.
I find it strange that your company doesn't have the option to enable/disabled CDN for any given DNS entry though.

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.
