# Verify Domain Claim

> Trigger DNS verification for a domain claim.

> [!NOTE]
>
> Calling this endpoint starts an **asynchronous verification process**. Resend
> checks the claim's TXT record and runs ownership-safety checks before
> transferring the domain to your team. Add the TXT record returned by [Claim
> Domain](/docs/api-reference/domains/claim-domain) before calling this, then poll
> [Retrieve Domain Claim](/docs/api-reference/domains/get-domain-claim) to follow the
> `status`.

> [!NOTE]
>
> **After the claim completes:** the domain is transferred to your account as a
> brand-new domain with its own DKIM keys, so the previous account's DNS records
> can't be reused. Fetch it with [Retrieve
> Domain](/docs/api-reference/domains/get-domain), update your DNS with the new DKIM
> record(s), then run [Verify Domain](/docs/api-reference/domains/verify-domain) to
> finish setup before sending or receiving email. See [DKIM
> records](/docs/dashboard/domains/manage-domains#what-are-dkim-records) for details.

## Path Parameters

The placeholder Domain ID returned when the claim was created.
