AWS – Create a record set for an s3 static website

I have a static website up and running at

http://volcalc.s3-website-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/

It is stored on an aws S3 bucket.

I have bought the domain volcalc.io

I just want to switch to use that as the url of my website.

I’m following the instructions here. I’m doing “Create record sets”.

I’m trying to create a record set but when I check the radio button “yes” for “alias” then I try to enter an “alias target” there are no options to select from and the tutorial is saying there should be:

So I just tried to paste in this: http://volcalc.s3-website-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/

and click create but it says:

The record set could not be saved because: – Alias Target contains an invalid value.

What do I enter into alias target? Why aren’t there any options to select from?
