**App Name:** Spin & Pop **Issue:** I need assistance with manual domain validation. I am a solo developer hosting my Node.js backend on [Render.com](http://Render.com). Because it is a shared PaaS, I cannot add a TXT record to the root `onrender.com` domain, and the HTML file method is failing for the subdomain validation.

Can a Zoom specialist please DM me so we can manually validate my specific subdomain ([https://zoom-spin-wheel.onrender.com](https://zoom-spin-wheel.onrender.com))? Thank you!
