Problems propagating TXT record
Hello,
I'm trying to get the domain to propagate a TXT record (as requested by Azure). When I go to DNS Zone Editor (manage submenu), I can create a new record with TTL, type (TXT in this case), and the record itself. But firstly, I need to type the name and this is the problem. The Azure technician told me to introduce '@' but the system is not allowing me to do so and keeps asking for letters or numbers; therefore I'm ending up with the domain name itself. The host provider keeps claiming that in no way I should introduce '@' but the domain name as I have done. However, this contradicts not only what Azure is telling me but what several posts describe (e.g.

Hey there! The "@" in a DNS zone is a shortcut for "domain.com" so I would expect either to work properly. For example, if you see this in a DNS zone: @ IN TXT "your; textrecord; here;"
that gets interpreted as this by the nameserver:domain.com. IN TXT "your; textrecord; here;"
Both are correct, and will work just fine. Does that help with the issue you're running into?0 -
Hi. It has been over a week since I created the TXT record and Azure still doesn't see it when I click verify. I understand what you're saying but, at this point, the syntax is my only explanation to why it's not working. Otherwise I have no clue why it hasn't propagated. Thanks. 0 -
Hi. I was finally able to get Azure to verify the domain. Thanks for the help. 0 -
@afernandezody - I'm glad that's working well now! 0
