Referring to this discussion, you are now able to manually override domain mappings by using the Admin API 'DomainOverrideStrategy' option:
- Simply create your domain mapping via the API Explorer by filling out the 'appsId' parameter and setting the 'overrideStrategy' parameter to "OVERRIDE" (without the quotes).
- Then add and fill out the 'DomainMapping' parameters in the 'Request body'. Also ensure you turn on 'Authorize requests using OAuth 2.0' so that you may prove your ownership over the project ID 'appsId' found in the Cloud Console.
