# Update DNS records to white-label Demand IQ

### Instructions: Set up Demand IQ's CNAME Records

Log in to your **domain registrar**. Navigate to your domain's **DNS records**. Find where you can **Add** DNS records.

Click **Add **and select CNAME record as the DNS record type.

Log in to the **Demand IQ Portal**. Click **Configurator** and then the **Integrations** tab. Scroll down to find the DNS records. 

Copy and paste the DNS records from **Demand IQ **into your **domain registrar. **

Set the **TTL (time-to-live)** as **low** as your domain registrar will allow. Click **Save**.

![Screen Shot 2021-04-08 at 11.18.46 AM](https://knowledge.demand-iq.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Screen%20Shot%202021-04-08%20at%2011.18.46%20AM.png?width=688&name=Screen%20Shot%202021-04-08%20at%2011.18.46%20AM.png)

The **Name** column in Demand IQ should correspond with a field labeled Name, Host, @, etc. 

The **Value **column in Demand IQ should correspond with a field labeled Value, Points To, Data, etc. 

Please note, if you're using Cloudflare, you will have to make the Proxied Status "DNS Only", NOT "Proxied".

Once you have added the DNS records, wait the amount of time you set with the time-to-live, then go back to the **Integration** tab in **Configurator** in Demand IQ, and click **Verify**.
