Adding custom hosting domain: "Unexpected TXT records found. Continuing to watch for changes."

I'm attempting to add a custom domain to firebase hosting.

Added the TXT records as instructed, and I get this message in the firebase dashboard:

"Unexpected TXT records found. Continuing to watch for changes."

There is one additional TXT record in my DNS settings, but I can't remove it. I don't see how it would get in the way of firebase's verification of my domain either.

I'm using Namecheap if that helps.

Thanks in advance!

Solution

  • I had to make sure that for the host field, it was set to '@', and not my actual host name.

    I'm told this varies from registrar to registrar. Some require '@' for the host field if it's for the root domain, and others do not.

    Hope this helps someone.
