Where is AWS Route 53 hosted zone A record ipv4 address located?

I'm trying to find out how to bind A record created in AWS Route 53 hosted zone and my custom domain artem-dev.link bought not on AWS. Here is my A record directs to Cloudfront distribution:

And this is how my domain provider host records settings section look like:

So, I need an ipv4 address for adding A record, but I can't find it on AWS.

Solution

  • Your Route53 hosted zone and records do not affect your artem-dev.link domain because you haven't transferred the DNS management from Namecheap to AWS Route 53.

    You have two options here:

    1. Transfer DNS management to AWS and then you won't need to add records in Namecheap, all DNS records will be in Route53 and you already have that settled;
    2. Delete the Route53 hosted zone and use Namecheap to manage DNS. Create ANAME record (alias CNAME for root domains) in Namecheap: artem-dev.link -> xxx.cloudfront.net.
