Get-EntraDomainVerificationDnsRecord

Retrieve the domain verification DNS record for a domain.

Syntax

Get-EntraDomainVerificationDnsRecord
   -Name <String>
   [-Property <String[]>]
   [<CommonParameters>]

Description

Gets the domain's verification records from the verificationDnsRecords navigation property.

You can't use the domain with your Microsoft Entra ID tenant until you have successfully verified that you own the domain.

To verify the ownership of the domain, you need to first retrieve a set of domain verification records that you need to add to the zone file of the domain. This can be done through the domain registrar or DNS server configuration.

Root domains require verification. For example, contoso.com requires verification. If a root domain is verified, subdomains of the root domain are automatically verified. For example, subdomain.contoso.com is automatically be verified if contoso.com has been verified.

In delegated scenarios, the signed-in user must have either a supported Microsoft Entra role or a custom role with the necessary permissions. The minimum roles required for this operation are:

  • Domain Name Administrator
  • Global Reader
