Domain redirect not visible in dashboard - need help removing

Hi community! I have a domain redirect issue that I can’t resolve through the dashboard.

Current behavior:

My domain schoolofcinematics.io redirects to School of Cinematics

Expected behavior:

The domain should serve my content directly without redirecting

What I’ve checked:

  • Team-level domain settings - no redirect visible

  • Project-level domain settings - no redirect visible

  • Deployment settings - no redirect visible

  • DNS records are correctly configured (ALIAS records pointing to Vercel)

  • No redirects in next.config.ts or vercel.json files

Evidence:

When I curl the domain, I get:

HTTP/2 308
location: School of Cinematics
server: Vercel

HTTP/2 308

location: School of Cinematics

server: Vercel

The redirect appears to be configured somewhere in Vercel that’s not visible through the standard dashboard interface. I set this up a few weeks ago but cannot remember how or where I configured it.

Project: Next.js app

Framework: Next.js 15.4.4

Has anyone encountered this before? How can I locate and remove this redirect configuration?

Thanks for any help!

The domain troubleshooting guide can help with most custom domain configuration issues. You might be able to use that guide to solve it before a human is available to help you. Then you can come back here and share the answer for bonus points.

You can also use v0 to narrow down the possibilities.

Did you set up the redirct in a vercel.json file?

Yes, I did have redirects in my vercel.json file a few weeks ago, but I’ve since removed them. My current vercel.json only has rewrites configured. However, the redirect is still happening even though I’ve removed the redirect configuration from the file. Could there be a cached version or deployment that still has the old redirect configuration?

Digging into the data, it looks like schoolofcinematics.io is assigned to a project called schoolofcinematics-redirect. You can remove the domain from that project and add it directly to the project that has the content you want to use.

If you still want to keep it on the redirect project, you should remove any vercel.json redirects included in that project.

I hope that makes sense!
