I am on the Pro plan. Is there a step I am missing?  Anshuman Bhardwaj (@anshumanb) · 2025-03-05 Hi @valokafor, welcome to the Vercel Community! You're doing the right steps. The Vercel development environment is not supposed to have a custom domain because it is to be used on your local development machine via the CLI. If you want a dev environment for deployments, you can also use the https://vercel.com/docs/deployments/custom-environments feature to create a new environment and set custom domains for it. I hope this was helpful.
