Before you start
- Your domain’s DNS records from the SendFlit dashboard.
- Access to Google Cloud DNS for the domain.
Steps
1
Open your DNS settings
Google Cloud console → Network services → Cloud DNS → select your zone → Add record set.
2
Add the DKIM record
Type: TXT. Name:
sendflit._domainkey (or the name the dashboard shows). Value: copy the full value from the dashboard.3
Add the sending (SPF) record
Type: TXT. Name and value: copy both from the Enable sending section of the dashboard. Use the name the dashboard shows, which is either the root domain or your return-path subdomain.
If a record already starts with
v=spf1 on the same name, merge the new part into it instead of adding a second one.4
Add the DMARC record
Type: TXT. Name:
_dmarc. Value: copy it from the dashboard.5
Save and verify
Save the records, then click Verify DNS records in the dashboard, or run:
Google Cloud DNS notes
- Set Resource record type to TXT. Use the full name, ending in a dot (for example
sendflit._domainkey.yourdomain.com.). - Google Cloud DNS needs TXT values in double quotes. Paste the value with the quotes included.
Check the records yourself
