# Cloudflare: add a DNS record — DNS → Records → Add record

## Steps
1. Dashboard → the zone → "DNS Records" page.
2. Select "Add record".
3. Choose a record Type and fill in the required fields (they vary by type).
4. For A/AAAA/CNAME records, decide whether the hostname is proxied through Cloudflare; set TTL and any Comment/Tag.
5. Select "Save".

## End state
The record appears listed on the DNS Records page and begins resolving (or, if proxied, routing through Cloudflare) once DNS propagates.
