How to mask the domain forward from Google domains without Google app

Tags:

I just purchased a Domain Name from googledomains (I don't have Google app). And for my surprise, the option of Domain Forwarding cannot be masked. I mean, I purchased "www.proto123.com" so the Domain Forward option redirects to a Yahoo server www.mywebsite.com/proto123/. The problem is that on the navigation bar of the webbrowser the address that appears is www.mywebsite.com/proto123/, instead of proto123.com

I already chat with the Google support personal and they said that the masking option is not available.

My question is: with the Dynamic DNS and/or resource records: A, AAAA, CNAME, MX, NS, PTR, SOA, SPF, SRV, TXT configuration tools. Is it possible to create the PROPER masking for the Domain Forwarding?

How do I forward masking with Google Domains?

Under “Forward from,” click Edit. Enter the domain or subdomain that you want to forward and the URL or IP address you want to forward it to. If you want to change the redirect type or path forwarding or turn on “Secure Sockets Layer,” click Advanced options and make your selections.

How do I mask a domain to another domain?

Domain masking can also be facilitated using DNS settings on your hosting provider. To redirect the domain you need to select your domain name and set a (masked) 301 redirect which hides the actual domain name from the address on the user's browser.

You can achieve the same thing by CNAME configurations on Google Domains.

  1. Configure the CNAME
  2. Configure the Synthetic Record DNS forward to *

Please see the sample screenshot enter image description here
