## Problem
Setting up a custom domain had two confusing UX issues, both caused by
local state not being refreshed after the relevant mutation:
1. **DNS records didn't appear after saving.** After hitting save you
got the green "Custom domain updated" snackbar, but the "Domain Setup"
section (the Cloudflare/DNS records to configure) stayed empty. You had
to leave the page and come back for the records to show up.
2. **The "Custom Domain" card stayed "Inactive"** even after the DNS
records validated as "Success". Only a full page reload flipped it to
"Active".
## Root cause
**Issue 1 — stale closure.** In `useSettingsCustomDomain.handleSave`,
the `updateWorkspace` `onCompleted` callback called
`setCurrentWorkspace({ ...currentWorkspace, customDomain })` and then
`checkCustomDomainRecords()`. But `checkCustomDomainRecords` guarded on
the closed-over `currentWorkspace.customDomain`, which was still `null`
at that render. The `setCurrentWorkspace` call doesn't synchronously
update that captured value, so the guard returned early and the records
were never fetched. Remounting the page (navigate away/back) ran the
on-mount effect with a fresh workspace, which is why the trip "fixed"
it.
**Issue 2 — `isCustomDomainEnabled` never refreshed locally.** The
Active/Inactive badge is driven by
`currentWorkspace.isCustomDomainEnabled`. The backend flips this flag
inside `checkCustomDomainValidRecords`
(`custom-domain-manager.service.ts`), but the mutation didn't return it,
so the local `currentWorkspaceState` stayed stale until a full reload
re-ran the bootstrap query. The green "Success" DNS rows read from a
different source (`record.status`), which is why the rows and the badge
disagreed.
## Changes
**Issue 1**
- `checkCustomDomainRecords` now accepts the domain explicitly
(defaulting to the workspace value), so the freshly-saved domain can be
passed straight from `handleSave` instead of relying on the stale
closure. No new `useEffect` introduced.
- Fixed the Reload button so it no longer passes its click event as the
domain argument.
**Issue 2**
- Added a nullable `isCustomDomainEnabled` field to the
`DomainValidRecords` GraphQL type, populated only by the custom-domain
check (the shared public-domain flow leaves it null, so it's backward
compatible).
- The frontend now writes that value back into `currentWorkspaceState`
when the check completes, using a **functional** Jotai update so a
concurrent `customDomain` update is never clobbered. The badge flips to
"Active" as soon as validation passes — on mount, on Reload, and right
after save.
I deliberately kept this targeted rather than introducing real-time
workspace sync: `isCustomDomainEnabled` only changes server-side during
the on-demand DNS check (mount/Reload/cron), so returning it from that
mutation is sufficient and far lower risk.
## Notes
- `packages/twenty-front/src/generated-metadata/graphql.ts` was updated
to match what `graphql:generate` produces for the new schema field
(codegen requires a running backend, which isn't available in this
environment). Worth re-running codegen in CI to confirm it's
byte-identical.
- No existing unit or integration tests reference these paths.
## Test plan
- [ ] Set a custom domain → DNS records appear immediately (no
navigation needed).
- [ ] Once DNS validates, the "Custom Domain" card flips to "Active"
without a reload.
- [ ] Reload button still refreshes records.
- [ ] Public domain validation flow is unaffected.

Why Twenty
Twenty gives technical teams the building blocks for a custom CRM that meets complex business needs and quickly adapts as the business evolves. Twenty is the CRM you build, ship, and version like the rest of your stack.

Installation
Cloud
The fastest way to get started. Sign up at twenty.com and spin up a workspace in under a minute, with no infrastructure to manage and always up to date.
Build an app
Scaffold a new app with the Twenty CLI:
npx create-twenty-app my-app
Define objects, fields, and views as code:
import { defineObject, FieldType } from 'twenty-sdk/define';
export default defineObject({
nameSingular: 'deal',
namePlural: 'deals',
labelSingular: 'Deal',
labelPlural: 'Deals',
fields: [
{ name: 'name', label: 'Name', type: FieldType.TEXT },
{ name: 'amount', label: 'Amount', type: FieldType.CURRENCY },
{ name: 'closeDate', label: 'Close Date', type: FieldType.DATE_TIME },
],
});
Then ship it to your workspace:
npx twenty app:publish --private
See the app development guide for objects, views, agents, and logic functions.
Self-hosting
Run Twenty on your own infrastructure with Docker Compose, or contribute locally via the local setup guide.
Everything you need
Twenty gives you the building blocks of a modern CRM (objects, views, workflows, and agents) and lets you extend them as code. Here's a tour of what's in the box.
