Mapping GoDaddy domain to Firebase Hosting does not get verified

I'm probably doing something silly, but I can't seem to be able to figure this out.

I've waited over 24 hours for Firebase to validate my domain, but the status just stays at "needs setup" and "domain not verified".

Per other other related answers on StackOverflow, I use @ as the Name for TXT, instead of what Firebase said to put there (I also tried the "acme-challenge.www.mydomain.com" for a while).

Here are my GoDaddy records:

Anyone got ideas what might be wrong?

Solution

  • OK. I think I got to the bottom of it finally (I'm really new to this domain business). I originally added www.mydomain.com and not the naked mydomain.com to the "connect domain wizard". And I believe since I didn't have a CNAME www pointing to @ it could never have worked.

    Now I just added mydomain.com to the wizard, and Firebase instantly validated the domain.

    The status is now "pending" since it takes up to 24 hours to validate the certificate, but the site already works.
