I’m trying to publish a website through Bootstrap Studio. I bought the domain name from GoDaddy about a year ago. Just built the site. I changed the nameservers on godaddy.com to Cloudflare, and now I’m supposed to add a DNS record on Cloudflare.
This is what I’m supposed to do for Bootstrap.
This is how I tried to do it.
This is the error: “An A, AAAA, or CNAME record with that host already exists. (Code: 81053 )”
I am a complete rookie at web hosting stuff. What am I supposed to do here? Which one do I delete/edit?

Below is an article suggesting what to look for and how to fix this issue:
True, as Cloudflare from now on manages the DNS recrods for your domain name which you still renew yearly at GoDaddy.

You did the correct step adding a CNAME record, but from the above screenshots I see you already have A zennydaye.com
.
Before adding the CNAME
pointed to bootstrapstudio you should remove the existing A zennydaye.com
pointed to the IP address.
Therefore, add the CNAME zennydaye.com
pointed to sites.bootstrapstudio.io
as you already tried to and it should work.
