What is the name of the domain?

What is the error number?

there is no error number

What is the error message?

We’re currently unable to verify your domain. You may need to wait longer for your domain host to update your information. If that doesn’t happen soon, try verifying again.

What is the issue you’re encountering

Been about 36 hours and the record is right, but it can’t find it.

What steps have you taken to resolve the issue?

Tried switching verification method and trying the CNAME setup but that doesn’t verify either.
This is a secondary domain on the Googleworkspace so could be part of the issue.
Have checked, and readded the records. Have purged DNS cache and tried to verify again but still it cannot find the records to verify.
Purpose of this is to add domain to Google Workspace and setup email (need send and receive so can’t be alias).
Domain bought through Cloudflare.
Posting here in case there are any known issues

What feature, service or problem is this related to?

Hey there,

I’m able to see the verification record when using dig without issues at your domain root. You can view the results through this link: DNS Propagation Checker - Global DNS Testing Tool

If you are still having issues verifying the domain with Google, I would suggest you double-check to see if the value in the record matches with the value provided by Google.

Thanks Micky!

After 48 hours and still nothing worked, I deleted the domain from google and readded it (Did not change DNS) and it worked.
Some google Glitch I guess.
