Google Cloud Run - Domain Mapping stuck at Certificate Provisioning

Turning proxying off in CloudFlare resolved the issue in my case (keeping it as DNS only).

Most likely the Google balancer needs to get the request first-hand in order to make the certificate safe.


I faced the same issue with exact error:

Waiting for certificate provisioning. You must configure your DNS records for certificate issuance to begin.

After digging a bit more the error actually made sense. Before generating the cert Google is trying to check if our DNS records are properly configured and well propagated through all regions which is not the case for me due to some glitch at the nameserver level. I raised a ticket with my nameserver vendor with the DNS propagation report from the below tools/websites which clearly showed that the DNS records are not available in some regions. Once they fixed the propagation issue, all my reports started to show positive results after which I recreated my domain mapping and it worked within few minutes.
