Verifying your email domain

Verifying a domain proves your organisation owns it, for example yourcompany.com. You need it to:

• route Sign in with SSO by email address, so people don't need to know your organisation's short name;
• link existing AssetTrove accounts to their SSO identity at their first SSO sign-in;
• require SSO for everyone.

How to verify

1. On the Security page, add your domain.
2. AssetTrove shows a TXT record. Its name is _itam-verification.yourcompany.com and its value starts with itam-verification=.
3. Add that TXT record at your DNS provider.
4. Back in AssetTrove, select Verify.

DNS changes can take a while to spread. If verification fails at first, wait a few minutes and try again.

Good to know

• A domain can be verified by only one organisation. If your domain is already claimed, contact us.
• You can verify several domains, for example after a merger.
• Keep the TXT record in place. Removing it doesn't sign anyone out, but it's your proof of ownership if it's ever questioned.
