Domain not verifying
A checklist for a custom domain stuck on Verifying or Not found yet: records, hosts, proxies, conflicting records and waiting times.
Open Settings, then Domain, and look at the DNS table. Each record says Found or Not found yet. Fix the ones not found.
Checklist#
- Copy the values again. Use the Copy buttons in the table. A single stray space or a missing character breaks it.
- Check the host. For a subdomain, the host is just the left part:
tasks, nottasks.youragency.com. Some providers add your domain automatically and some do not. If your provider showstasks.youragency.com.youragency.comafter saving, remove the extra part. - Check the TXT record. Its host is
_missions-verifyfollowed by your subdomain, for example_missions-verify.tasks. The value is the token shown in the app. - Only one record per name. A subdomain cannot have a CNAME and another record (such as an A record) on the same name. Delete the old one.
- Turn off proxying. If your DNS provider offers a proxy or "orange cloud" option, set the CNAME to DNS only while we verify.
- Root domains. Use the A record. Some providers call the host
@, others leave it empty. A root domain cannot use a CNAME. - Wait, then press Re-check now. DNS changes can take up to 24 to 48 hours. The card shows when it was last checked.
"That is a root domain" or "That is a subdomain"#
You chose the wrong type. Choose Root domain for youragency.com and Subdomain for tasks.youragency.com.
"That address belongs to Missions itself"#
You cannot use a Missions or hosting address, such as anything ending in missionnops.com. Use a domain you own, like tasks.yourcompany.com. Any domain you control works: the DNS check proves it is yours before it goes live.
Verified but not Live#
After the records are Found, the next steps are Verifying and Issuing SSL. This usually takes minutes but can take longer. When the card says "Live · SSL active" you are done.
