Custom DomainOne-click & Quick Connect

One-click & Quick Connect

Show Hub can add your DNS records for you in two ways. Both only touch the records your site needs, nothing else on your domain.

One-click (Domain Connect)

Domain Connect  is an open standard supported by DNS providers such as GoDaddy, Cloudflare, IONOS, Squarespace, WordPress.com and Plesk.

Click “Connect with your provider”

After you enter your domain, the One-click tab appears if your provider supports it.

Sign in at your provider

You’re sent to your provider’s own site. Show Hub never sees your password.

Review and approve

Your provider lists exactly which records will be added. Approve, and you’re sent back to Show Hub while we finish up.

Quick Connect (paste a token once)

For providers with a DNS API, you can create a token, paste it into Show Hub, and we add the records.

ProviderWhat to pasteWhere to create it
CloudflareAPI token (DNS edit + Zone read)Show Hub links to a pre-filled token page
DigitalOceanAPI token (domain read + update)Account → API → Tokens
Vercel DNSAccess token (+ team ID if the domain is in a team)Account settings → Tokens
PorkbunAPI key + secret key (turn on API Access for the domain)Account → API Access
GandiPersonal access token (domain technical configuration)Organization → Personal access tokens
Netlify DNSPersonal access tokenUser settings → Applications
Amazon Route 53Access key ID + secret (Route 53 record permissions)IAM → Users → Security credentials

If a record already exists

If the host you chose already points somewhere else (for example, the bare domain serves another website), Show Hub stops and asks before replacing it. Text and mail records (Google verification, SPF/DKIM) are always added alongside existing ones, never replaced.

Providers without either option

GoDaddy’s API is limited to large accounts, and Namecheap’s API requires IP allow-listing, so for those (unless one-click is available) Show Hub shows guided manual steps. It takes about two minutes.
