What is _globalsign-domain-verification?

_globalsign-domain-verification is a TXT DNS record used by GlobalSign, a Certificate Authority (CA), to verify domain ownership before issuing SSL/TLS certificates.

When you apply for an SSL certificate from GlobalSign, they may ask you to add a TXT record to your domain's DNS settings to prove that you own the domain.

Why is _globalsign-domain-verification Required?

GlobalSign, like other CAs, follows strict validation procedures to issue SSL certificates securely. Domain Control Validation (DCV) is one method to confirm that the applicant has control over the domain.

Adding a DNS TXT record is one of the easiest and most automated ways to complete this verification.

How to Add _globalsign-domain-verification TXT Record

To complete the verification, you must add a TXT record in your domain's DNS settings.

Find the Required Verification Code

When applying for an SSL certificate, GlobalSign will provide you with a unique verification value, such as:

_globalsign-domain-verification=abcdef1234567890abcdef1234567890

Save this value for the next step.

Add the TXT Record in Your DNS Settings

The process depends on your DNS provider (Cloudflare, GoDaddy, Namecheap, AWS Route 53, etc.).

Example: Adding TXT Record in Cloudflare

  1. Login to your Cloudflare Dashboard.
  2. Select your domain.
  3. Go to DNS Settings > Click Add Record.
  4. Choose Type: TXT
  5. Name (Host): _globalsign-domain-verification
  6. Value (Content): abcdef1234567890abcdef1234567890 (Your provided verification code)
  7. TTL: Auto
  8. Click Save.

Example: Adding TXT Record in cPanel

  1. Login to cPanel.
  2. Open Zone Editor under Domains.
  3. Select Manage for your domain.
  4. Click Add Record > Choose TXT.
  5. Name: _globalsign-domain-verification
  6. Value: abcdef1234567890abcdef1234567890
  7. TTL: Auto or 300
  8. Save the record.

Example: Adding TXT Record in GoDaddy

  1. Login to GoDaddy.
  2. Go to My Products > Select your domain.
  3. Click DNS Management.
  4. Scroll to Records and click Add.
  5. Type: TXT
  6. Host: _globalsign-domain-verification
  7. Value: abcdef1234567890abcdef1234567890
  8. TTL: 1 Hour
  9. Click Save.

Verify the TXT Record Propagation

After adding the record, it may take a few minutes to 48 hours to propagate across the internet.

Check Using Online DNS Tools

Use an online tool like:

Enter your domain and check if _globalsign-domain-verification appears in the results.

Check Using Command Line

If you prefer using the command line, run:

nslookup -type=TXT _globalsign-domain-verification.yourdomain.com

or

dig TXT _globalsign-domain-verification.yourdomain.com

If the correct value appears, the record is set up correctly.

Notify GlobalSign & Complete SSL Validation

Once the TXT record is added and verified, GlobalSign will automatically detect it, and the SSL certificate issuance process will continue. If verification does not complete within 24 hours, contact GlobalSign support.

Troubleshooting Issues

Issue Solution
TXT record not found Wait for DNS propagation (up to 48 hours) or check if the record was entered correctly.
Incorrect verification value Ensure the exact value provided by GlobalSign is used.
Domain typo in verification Double-check the domain name where the record is added.
Using a CDN like Cloudflare If using Cloudflare, disable "Proxy" mode (?? Orange Cloud) and use "DNS Only" mode.

Summary

  • _globalsign-domain-verification is a TXT DNS record used to verify domain ownership for SSL certificates.
  • The record must be added to your domain's DNS settings with the exact value provided by GlobalSign.
  • You can check the record's propagation using online tools or command-line queries.
  • Once detected, GlobalSign will validate the domain, and the SSL certificate will be issued.

Following these steps ensures a smooth SSL verification process.
