How to verify a domain in Google Workspace/G Suite in cPanel?

To use Google Workspace, formerly known as G Suite, the service will ask you to validate your domain. This is a security step to prevent others from using your domain with Google Workspace.

Steps to verify your domain:

Access the Cpanel control panel and then navigate to the Zone Editor option under the Domains section.

Click the Manage button for the domain you want to validate.

You will see the DNS Zone for your domain. Click the arrow button to the right of Add Record and select Add "TXT" record.

In the Google Workspace admin console, look for the verification code for your domain. You should see a screen similar to the one in the image. Click CONTINUE.

You will see the code to validate your domain. Copy the code with the COPY button.

Back on the screen where you created the TXT record in Cpanel, you must configure the record as follows:\

• Fill in the first field with your domain, adding a dot at the end.\

• In the Record field, paste the verification code provided by Google Workspace in its admin console.\

• Save the TXT record by clicking the Save Record button.

This domain validation record may take up to 72 hours to apply. However, while you finish setting up the next steps in the Google Workspace admin console, Google will begin searching for your new verification record.
