This is great. Could we clarify that the entire label, i.e. all records in that zone with the same name, need to be grey? See ticket, if one or more orange names exist on the same label, we also won't serve the manually added HTTPS records when USSL is disabled. |
…TPS records Added: - Explanation that a 'label' refers to all records with the same name - Examples showing when manual HTTPS records will/won't be served - Updated browser-compatibility page to reference the detailed examples

Updates documentation to explain:
Files updated:
Addresses ESCALATION-2549
Summary
Clarifies documentation about when HTTPS records are served and when they are not.
Problem
Customers disable Universal SSL (for policy reasons) while using Advanced Certificates, then expect HTTPS records to be served. The current documentation was ambiguous ("could impact this behavior").
Solution
Updated two pages:
/dns/manage-dns-records/reference/dns-record-types/- Added note explaining:/ssl/reference/browser-compatibility/- Strengthened caution to clearly state Universal SSL is required for automatic HTTPS record generationTicket
