❶ Introduction
👉 Why do I need to verify ownership of my domain?
We are required to verify domain ownership to prevent any domain spoofing attempts and therefore potential attacks.
👉 Where can I verify my domains?
Go to Settings > Domains > Verify
❷ How do I verify my domain?
👉 Step 1: Verify ownership of my domain name
2 options :
I select my generic email address
I use the DNS method
👉 Step 2: Filter Riot phishing emails
API method (recommended)
👍 API method (recommended)
The API method allows attacks to be delivered directly into the user’s mailbox. It is much less time-consuming than the manual method, which requires whitelisting all domain names as well as configuring whitelisting in your anti-spam solution if necessary.
Manual method :
You will need to validate all domains manually using the documentation below.
👉 Step 3: Allow Riot on your external tools (if necessary)
If you are using an external anti-spam solution, you will need to authorize Riot to ensure domains are properly delivered.
👉 Step 4: Validate the Whitelist
To test that the whitelisting has been correctly configured, you will need to send a test email to an admin.
💡 Prerequisite:
To select the admin, the admin email address must belong to the domain being validated.
For example, if I want to validate the address “[email protected]”, I must have an admin registered on my platform with an email address such as “[email protected]”.
If no admin appears in the dropdown menu, I can add one via Settings > Members.
