How to perform third party Domain setup on Microsoft Azure?

Question

I have set up AD Azure and since I have a domain from a third party hosting provider(re-seller) i needed to assign MX and TX values in order to verify the Domain.

Re-seller refused to manually setup the records in the domain registrar and provided a free shared hosting package for me to setup those values in the control panel which i did with no effort and successfully verified the domain name within Azure portal.

I had made all the wire up within azure portal to use the domain i had verified but when i browse y.com i get responses from the Re-seller server instead of Azure.

The only thing i had left to do is to change the NS records which the Re-Seller refused to do so - so far.

Please provide some details of how the request travels in this kind of Domain name setup and what measures should i take in order to use my domain in Azure hosted environment?

To bind a custom domain for your Azure app, you need to do three main steps to map the custom domain to your app( more detail refer here):

And if you also want to add a custom domain for Azure AD, you can refer this document.
