Setting DNS CName via Amazon Route53

I just wanted to validate I was setting the correct name (DNS is not my strong point) The railway app says to set a cname with a name of '@' but despite doing that the records seem to be taking a time to update. My DNS for the domain I want to point to has quite a lot going on in terms of A Records and others - Should I remove those first?

Sorry - probably should have searched beforehand - looks like AWS doesn't support root level cnames

correct, you'd have to use cloudflare's nameservers
