If you are adding DNS record with CloudFlare, make sure that proxy status is "bypass", it will not work with "proxied".
Verify the CNAME
Once you add a CNAME record, click on the verify button. If everything is correct, your custom domain will be successfully created.
Done.
That's it! Your custom domain will be live with a valid SSL certificate in few minutes. Open your custom domain in a new tab to validate the setup.
Copy the Channel URL
Copy the channel URL from the top of the page to see the channel page on your domain.
Also, the videos on the channel pages are on your new domain name.
