Thanks, David. I seem to be a bit lost. Thus far, redirection to the appspot address does occur, but the custom domain names are not remaining in the address bar, so I'm trying to configure the cname as instructed in the document. I believe that the instructions to which you are referring are here: Updating DNS records at your domain registrar <https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/standard/python/mapping-custom-domains#dns_update>, and that they are in item *3. Locate the host records section of your domain's configuration page and add each of the DNS records that you retrieved when you mapped your domain to your app*.
I'm looking at a page in my appspot project settings where information about my custom domain from Google is displayed. One of the columns is labelled *Record type*. The only place where a CNAME is listed is on a row where the *www* is listed under the *Custom domain name* column. On that row, the entry in the *Record type* column is *CNAME*, and the entry under the *Data* column is *ghs.googlehosted.com*. All the other records on the page are either of *AAAA* type or of *A* type. Is this the *host records section of my domain's configuration page* to which instruction 3 refers? If so, should there be additional CNAME information on that page that is missing, or do I need to copy something from that page to a form on some other page in order to complete the configuration for the redirection, so that the custom name remains in the address bar? Thanks for your help.
