Question
Have a droplet on a dev team, how do I link the site as a subdomain to the main site?
How do I link the PTR records from a dev account to the main account to the using DNS records in order to link the droplet to a subdomain. I followed this tutorial https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-set-up-and-test-dns-subdomains-with-digitalocean-s-dns-panel . But cannot see anything on my PTR records. Do I need to transfer the droplet from the dev to the other account? If so how?

To make sure I understand the issue, you’re saying that another account has the authority for example.com and you want to setup something.example.com?
If this is the case, then I think you’d need to make the changes in the DNS in the other account as the DNS settings for example.com are there.
I don’t think you have to transfer the droplet to the other account but I do think the DNS change needs to be made in the other account. From there, for example, you could point something.example.com at the IP address of the droplet in the dev account, etc.
Does that help?
