    DNS provider guide

    Google Cloud DNS: add the client portal records

    How to publish the two DNS records for your client portal address at Google Cloud DNS. Each record below is written the way Google Cloud DNS asks for it.

    Before you start

    Name servers at Google Cloud DNS usually look like ns-cloud-a1.googledomains.com. If yours look different, your DNS is run elsewhere: see how to find your DNS host in the full guide.

    • Your registrar must use all the name servers of the managed zone. Registrar setup on the zone details page lists them.

    Where Google Cloud DNS shows the name servers

    Zone details, Registrar setup.

    Fill in your own values

    Enter the address you added in Atlas, and paste the TXT value Atlas shows for it. Every record on this page and on the provider guides then shows your exact values. What you enter stays in this browser.

    For example portal.yourfirm.com, without https:// in front of it.

    Copy it from the card of your address in Atlas. It starts with atlas-portal-verification=

    Your domain is read as yourfirm.com. If your DNS provider shows a different domain at the end of the name field, enter only the part of the name before that domain.

    Things to watch at Google Cloud DNS

    • If two records share a name, only a CNAME record may be there. Delete any other record on your portal name.

    Check that it worked

    Go back to Atlas and choose Check now on the card of your address, or ask DNS yourself:

    bash
    dig +short TXT _atlas-portal.portal.yourfirm.com
    dig +short CNAME portal.yourfirm.com
    
    nslookup -type=TXT _atlas-portal.portal.yourfirm.com
    nslookup -type=CNAME portal.yourfirm.com

    Google does not state a time for a new record.

    What this guide could not confirm

    The help pages of Google Cloud DNS do not state the following. Where a label is missing above, look for the field described here.

    • The label of the value field in the record form is not given in the documentation. It is the field below TTL that holds the record data.
    • Whether the CNAME target needs a final dot is not stated. If the console refuses the target, add a dot at the end.

    Other providers
