Here we describe how to manage your DKIM and SPF configuration when sending mail using Google Workspace.

DKIM

How to set up DKIM signing

  1. Log into your Google Workspace admin account at admin.google.com.

  2. On the left pane, go to "Apps," then "Google Workspace," and finally "Gmail." Click on "Authenticate email."

  3. Under "Selected domain" select the domain you want to set up DKIM for. If DKIM was not yet set up for this domain, you'll see "STATUS: Not authenticating email." If so, go ahead and click "Generate new record" and confirm the defaults in the "Generate new record" dialog by clicking "Generate."

  4. Set up the TXT record that is now presented to you under google._domainkey with your DNS provider. Double check if your DKIM record is correctly set up using our DKIM check (enter your domain and the selector google).

    Once you've done that, click on "Start authentication" to let Google start signing outgoing mail with this new DKIM key.

SPF

Here's an example SPF record to be used with Google Workspace:

Text
v=spf1 include:_spf.google.com ~all
