How to map a domain name to a load balancer in google cloud platform?

  • 772

I have successfully set up a load balancer in google cloud platform

enter image description here

If I use the IP as shown in the image, I can test and verify that the set up is working as I planned.

Now I would like to map a domain name to the IP. I want to use www.mycompany.com. I have already created a A record in my DNS to point www to 1.2.3.4. However the domain name gives a 404 error.

enter image description here

I am sure I need to associate this new domain name to the IP address.

There is no obvious place to do it in load balanceing or external IP addresses screen.

Where can I do it?

subdomain load-balancing google-cloud-platform domain-name

  1. It seems to take time for gcp to know how to handle the new domain name. About some 15 minutes after the additional of the new A record, the domain name www.mycompany.com starts to work. The 404 screen is gone
