I am using the newly created App Platform from Digital Ocean. I am trying to point my domain to the server that I created within Digital Ocean. I am told I need to add a CNAME to my domain (since DO only gives me a domain rather than an IP), but from what I understand I can only do this for a subdomain (like www). Is there a way to point my root domain there (to DO) without losing my MX records that point to Google?

Who told you this? – Michael Hampton Feb 19 '21 at 18:21

MX records doesn't have anything to do with the domain name per se, they can point to other domains than your own. CNAME's are not allowed on root level. – Fredrik Feb 20 '21 at 11:01
