The isroot registration entry point

Register a subdomain

  1. Open Subdomains in the dashboard.
  2. Open the creation form, enter a name such as myproject, and complete the CAPTCHA.
  3. Choose Create Subdomain and wait for the success message.
  4. Confirm that myproject.isroot.in appears in your subdomain list.

Enter only the name, without .isroot.in, a URL scheme, or a path. Names must be 3–63 characters long and use lowercase letters, numbers, or hyphens. A hyphen cannot appear at either end. Reserved, inappropriate, and already registered names are rejected.

Subdomain registration in the dashboard

What happens next

Your registration lasts 365 days. Check its expiry date in Subdomains, and renew before it expires.

DNS setup is attempted during registration. If the dashboard offers Retry setup / migration, use it in DNS Records for the selected subdomain.

The default allowance is one subdomain. Starring the repository linked in the dashboard unlocks up to five. Successful registrations are limited to one per hour. See limits and naming rules.

Connect your project

Registration does not deploy a website. Follow Connect a project to add your hosting provider's DNS records, then use Manage DNS for future changes.
