Create a new TXT record in my DNS settings

Hi,

Hubspot hosts my domain, and Google Workspace has asked me to add a TXT verification so I can use an email@domainname.com

I can't find a place under User Settings > Tools > Content > Domains & URLS that allows me to do this. How do I verify that I own the domain if Hubspot is the host?

Every instruction prompts me to verify that Hubspot is authorized to send emails via my email provider. Which is not what I want.

Hey @dhruvwadhwa, thank you for posting in our Community!

When you connect your domain to HubSpot, you'll need to update the DNS records in your DNS provider. Below are general instructions for updating your DNS records, as well as detailed instructions for the most common DNS providers.

To add a TXT verification record to your DNS settings in HubSpot, you'll typically need to access your domain registrar's DNS management interface. While HubSpot manages your domain, the DNS settings are often controlled through your domain registrar.

This knowledge base here has more details about it.

I hope this information helps,

Pam
