# Verify Domain

:::callout{intent="note"}
Calling this API endpoint triggers an **asynchronous domain verification
process**. The domain will be temporarily marked as `pending` regardless of
its current status while the verification is in progress. Since this request
initiates the complete domain verification cycle, it will trigger
`domain.updated` webhook events as the domain status changes during the
verification process.
:::

:::callout{intent="note"}
**Claimed a domain?** A [domain claim](/guides/learn-dashboard-domains-claim) transfers the
domain into your account as a brand-new domain with its own DKIM keys, so the
previous account's DNS records can't be reused. After the claim is
`completed`, fetch the domain with [Retrieve
Domain](/guides/domains-2-get-domain), update your DNS with the new DKIM
record(s) it returns, then call this endpoint to verify it before sending or
receiving email. See [DKIM
records](/guides/learn-dashboard-domains-manage-domains#what-are-dkim-records) for details.

## Path Parameters
