# Verify Domain Claim

:::callout{intent="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](/guides/domains-2-claim-domain) before calling this, then poll
[Retrieve Domain Claim](/guides/domains-2-get-domain-claim) to follow the
`status`.
:::

:::callout{intent="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](/guides/domains-2-get-domain), update your DNS with the new DKIM
record(s), then run [Verify Domain](/guides/domains-2-verify-domain) to
finish setup before sending or receiving email. See [DKIM
records](/guides/learn-dashboard-domains-manage-domains#what-are-dkim-records) for details.
:::

## Path Parameters

The placeholder Domain ID returned when the claim was created.
