How to enable domain verification and invite enforcement
Establish domain ownership
- Log in to dropbox.com using your admin credentials.
- Click Admin Console in the left sidebar.
- Click Settings.
- Under Members, click Domains.
- Click Add domain.
- Enter the organization domain you'd like to verify ownership of.
- Select one of the three verification methods:
- Add a meta tag
- Upload an HTML file
- Create a TXT record
- Follow the instructions on the screen—once you've completed the verification, you'll receive an email notifying you that your domain ownership was successful.
Which verification method is right for me?
There are three different ways you can verify your domain:
- Add a meta tag
- Upload an HTML file
- Create a TXT record
For either of the first two options (adding a meta tag or uploading an HTML file), you'll likely need access to modify the code on your website. This is a secure and relatively fast option, since Dropbox will be able to see the changes as soon as they are live on your website.
If you don't have access to modify your website directly, or you don't have a website hosted at the domain you'd like to verify, you can create a TXT record on your domain host's website.
Most domain hosting services should have this functionality, however the specific steps on each service will vary. If you are unable to locate the steps for modifying your DNS configuration, please contact your domain host's support team or documentation for help. Dropbox can't provide domain host support.
