Change Azure domain on free trial account - azure

I want a try Azure as a hosting provider (I have a domain). I read that article https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/app-service-web/web-sites-custom-domain-name.
Step 3 after verification point 7 says:
Upon successful validation Add hostname button will become active and you will be able to the assign hostname.
I verified my domain
After domain validation, i can not see any option to assign hostname
I asked a colleague of mine and he told me that free trial version doesn't allow you to change your domain but he wasn't 100 % sure.
So my question is:
Can I change the domain in Azure if my account is a free trial?
Regards

Can i change domain in Azure if my account is free trial ?
As far as I know, app service in the free trial app service plan couldn't add the custom domain.
If you want to add the custom domain, you need to create shared trial and above.

How to set up Let's Encrypt with Azure? Trying to get SSL for my custom domain app service

I've tried following this:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C6V_mBo-gnE
But the setup has changed, because you need some more properties now:
see more here: https://www.poppastring.com/blog/azure-lets-encrypt-dashboardconnectionstring-field-is-required
The property names does not fit the names in Azure either, so more confusion for me.
Is it possible to just do this from the certify client? I managed to do this for Godaddy, but the DNS Update Method "Azure DNS API" is also confusing..
Sorry I can only find old guides for this..
Both of these should be set to your Azure Storage Account connection string, e.g. DefaultEndpointsProtocol=https;AccountName=[myaccount];AccountKey=[mykey];
Please see Scott's post here for complete instructions on using the Let's encrypt extension with Azure Web Apps.:

Release Azure Domain

I'm building a website/web application for this team and first started it on Azure. But now, we have realized that we would rather have it on something like WordPress. How do we transfer the ownership of the domain?
IF you want to map a custom domain to Azure Web, firstly you need to remove the spending limit on your subscription and buy a custom domain name for Azure App. About the detailed action you could follow the limit and the purchase tutorial.
After these, you could map your domain to your App with this tutorial.
If you still have other questions, please let me know.

Visual studio online IP restriction in VM not working

I want to provide/restrict access to resources based on IP from my google cloud vm to prevent my dev team downloading/uploading the code to public drives.
Everything is working fine up to now.But I want to provide access to Visual studio online TFS with my outlook account.
I created visual studio online account for Version control.
URL: https://eschooltest.visualstudio.com
Region: Canada Central
I came to know vs online IPs are published every wednesday and downloaded from the below url and added these canada central Ips to Google Firewall system with allow access.
https://www.visualstudio.com/team-services/support/ip-addresses-used-hosted-build/
But still I am not able to access vs url.I pinged this url from command prompt and found the ip is 13.107.6.175 which is not present in the canada central IP list and also not present in the whole ip list of all regions.
Can someone help to achieve the requirement? OR please let me know if there is an elegant way of doing this.
if this is not possible with VS online, I am planning to set up TFS express in another VM to prevent leaking of my code to outside world though this is cumbersome.
EDIT:
1. Why this ip is not present in the Published xml?
VSTS does not offer any type of IP-based filter — so you can't do like in SQL Azure, in which you add and/or remove IPs that can access the service on Azure. About this area take a look at thie blog: Prevent users from accessing the VSTS out of the workplace
You should take a look at the official tutorial how to Manage conditional access to VSTS
Conditional access offers simple ways to help secure resources for
VSTS accounts backed by an Azure Active Directory (AAD) tenant.
Conditional access policies like multi-factor authentication can help
protect against the risk of compromised credentials and help keep your
organization's data safe. For example, in addition to requiring
credentials, you can have a policy that only devices connected to a
corporate network can gain access.

Buying a domain through azure fails

So I created a Free trial account with Azure. I have Developed an MCV 5 web application, hosted it on the xxxx.azurewebsites.net and I am happy. I want to now buy a Custom domain so that the web application can run from there, but it fails to order the domain ? Why ??
I have upgraded to Pay-as-you-go and have changed from Free to Shared, which saying it allows custom domains. Yet... still failing.
Am I missing something? Or need to change something to allow purchasing of a Custom domain ?
I got this sorted. This is something I havnt seen people explaining, so those that are new with Azure(Like me), wont know this.
Even if you change the subscription to Pay-As-You_Go, it is still under the Free Trial, so you are not able to buy a custom domain. You will need to get in contact with the Azure team in your country(There is none here in South Africa, so i needed to go to their contact form on the azure site and submit it). An Azure team member phoned me from Microsoft India and converted my account to Pay-as-you-go, which meant I lost my free credit. Only THEN, could I buy a custom domain.
Hope this helps someone else.
In my experience, it can be repro in the free trail account.
After setup in the Azure Portal then you will get 200$ for free trail account.
In my option, it is just valid for the Azure resource. You can get the detail info from the link https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/free/?b=16.36.
It may not be used for 3rd product. Buy domain is just the function the Azure integrated with GoDaddy. So when you try to buy the custom domain it will be failed.
If you try to use custom domain ,please refer to Configure a custom domain name in Azure App Service (Purchased directly from GoDaddy)

How to transfer a custom domain name from expired/deleted susbscription to new Web App?

I maintain a family web site on Azure on my spare time. For a small fee, we have purchased a custom domain name to make it more "professional".
Unfortunately, the credit card associated with the susbscription has expired and since I was not actively monitoring the dedicated mail account I had created for this purpose, the susbscription has now been deleted (the susbscription is actually disabled in the portal, but the mail from Azure says that I need to create a new subscription if I want to change my mind).
In a matter of minutes, I registered a new subscription and thanks to continuous deployment, I could deploy the Web App from sources that I had kept on a GitHub account. However, an attempt to bring an external domain to the Web App fails with the reason being that the said domain is already in use by another Azure web site (presumably, the old Web App from the, now deleted, subscription)
A quick chat with the #AzureSupport team on Twitter, they suggested I file a support request from the Azure portal. However, since this is not a professionnal susbscription, I do not have a support plan. I see that support costs 25 $/month for at least 6 months in my situation.
This seems a bit too costly, like an order of magnitude higher than buying a new domain name for several years. At the same time, I don't understand why the deleted account is still locking the custom domain name. And it seems unfair that I need to pay to recover a domain name that I own but am unable to benefit from because it is associated with a Web App in a disabled Azure subscription!
Please, what are my options?
PS: Even though this is not a programmatic question, I post here because that's where Microsoft recommends to obtain community support. I have also posted a similar question on an appropriate MSDN Forum but the answers there are not satisfying.
Unfortunately on a technical level this will be something that can only be rectified by Azure support. Since you no longer have access to the account they will need to delete that domain association.
It is excessive that you are required to pay for a six month support contract to resolve an issue that is clearly an issue with the way Azure decommissions subscriptions.
The problem you now have is that you can't use Azure to host this domain until that association is removed. Your only options are to either have the complexity of using a VM or to move your site to AWS etc.
If you make those points to #AzureSupport team, maybe they will process it for you. Point them to this question and ask them to help you to keep using Azure.
