How to add Azure App Service Wildcard Custom Domian

I cannot seem to add a wildcard domain to an Azure App Service. I know I have done this in the past but I think the portal has changed.

There are several examples online of how to do this but all of them state you can enter a domain as "*.mydomain.com" which does not work thru the Azure portal.

I go into the my app's App Service page-->Custom Domains-->Add Custom domain. I select "All other domain services" and the Domain field appears. I want to enter *.mydomain.com but the portal will not allow an *.

How do you add a wildcard custom domain. I will have hundreds of subdomains in a multi-tenant app. I already have the wildcard cert and the CNAME and TXT records setup. Thanks
