The Name field in a CNAME resource record can't be left empty (this just works in a Zonefile, but then it corresponds to the Name of the previously provided Resource Record). It must be a valid hostname and therefore maybe "@" is problematic. I am not a DNS Expert tbh. But if "@" does not work, then use the domain followed by a dot instead. so if your domain name is "example.com", use "example.com.". If this still does not work, then I assume that there's a different error.

Again, we can only offer further help if we know your dnszone name or if you provide the related Module Logs (Command ModifyDNSZone).

I tested with "@" as well,

Invalid attribute value; cannot create CNAME record - CNAME in root level not allowed [...]

This should've been accessible in module log to you as well. This means that such a CNAME RR isn't possible.

For rounding this up: With our recent bundle version this error message is also getting shown in the DNS Management section to ensure it is visible to the client. You'll have to apply template changes to make this happen.

More details available in the release notes of v21.0.0. Check the "BREAKING CHANGES".
