CAA record is preventing issuance of the SSL Cert. in GoDaddy

What is the name of the domain?

longevitysecrets.myvitalc.com

What is the isssue you’re encountering

GoDaddy cannot setup SSL on subdomain because there is a CAA record blocking it. GoDaddy message: " At this time, your Cloudflare name servers have a CAA record that is preventing issuance of the SSL. We recommend you contact Cloudflare to remove those CAA records". How to remove the CAA record and not affect the rest of the domain?

What feature, service or problem is this related to?

If you want to allow Godaddy to issue certificates for any name in the myvitalc.com domain, without affecting any other Cloudflare settings on the domain, you can add a CAA record there for Godaddy. It would look like this:

But right now there is a CAA record that should allow Godaddy to issue a certificate for longevitysecrets.myvitalc.com.
