Verify Your Infrastructure

Prove ownership of your domains via a DNS TXT record to unlock Custom Scan and advanced monitoring features.

Prove ownership of your domains to unlock Custom Scan and advanced monitoring features.

Add your domain

Go to Account > Infrastructure and click "Add new". Enter the domain you want to verify (e.g. example.com).

Get your verification token

After adding the domain, mlab.sh generates a unique verification token in the format:

mlab-domain-xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx

Copy this token.

Add a DNS TXT record

In your DNS provider (Cloudflare, OVH, AWS Route53, etc.), add a TXT record on your root domain with the verification token as the value.

Example DNS record

Type: TXT - Name: @ - Value: mlab-domain-abc123...

Verify

Go back to Account > Infrastructure, click on your domain and hit "Verify". Mlab.sh will check your DNS TXT records and confirm ownership.

Once verified, your domain is ready for Custom Scan.
