Setting custom domain for a service

Hello, in the service settings it says to set the CNAME record to this CNAME @ s875zdxq.up.railway.app I tried that but nothing happened after 4 days. I tried visiting s875zdxq.up.railway.app but nothing shows up. Shouldn't I be setting it like this?
CNAME @ edocards.up.railway.app I can actually view my site with edocards.up.railway.app, so it seems like I should be using that instead. I went ahead and set it in the DNS record at namecheap and I'll wait a few days to see if it works but just wanted to post here to see if I'm doing this right or not.

I think what happened is that I changed the name of the service with the EDIT button in the first image and when I did that it didn't show the updated value when I clicked on "Show Instructions" as in the second image. I just set it to edocards.up.railway.app in the namecheap DNS records so I'll wait a bit and see if that works
