Creating Domains with Automation
When creating domains with automated DNS management enabled, the process becomes seamless:- DNS records are automatically pushed to your DNS provider
- Domain verification is automatically triggered
- Status updates occur in real-time
Monitoring Domain Status
Since domain verification happens automatically, you need to poll the domain verification endpoint to check verification progress:Domain Verification Status
The domain verification endpoint uses HTTP status codes to indicate verification status:| Status Code | Description | 
|---|---|
| 200 | Domain fully verified and ready for use | 
| 202 | Verification is still pending - continue polling | 
| 4xx/5xx | Verification failed - check configuration |
