Verify an Agent Using Godaddy Ans

Verify an agent to establish a trusted identity based on domain ownership and enable its verified status in Anypoint Exchange.

Verification uses GoDaddy Agent Name Service (ANS) to validate the domain associated with the agent and confirm that you control it.

Before You Begin

Before verifying an agent, make sure that:

For infrastructure requirements such as domain configuration and TLS setup, see Prepare your environment for agent verification.

The verification wizard opens and guides you through the required steps.

In this step:

Confirm or update the Consumer endpoint

The consumer endpoint is used to derive the domain that is verified. Only the hostname is used. This domain becomes part of the agent’s identity and can’t be changed after registration.
Select a Secret group

The secret group is used to store credentials and generated security artifacts required for verification.

You must have access to at least one secret group with sufficient permissions to continue.

If the domain or environment isn’t correctly configured, validation errors are displayed and you can’t proceed.

Provide your GoDaddy credentials:

These credentials are used to authenticate with GoDaddy ANS and initiate the verification process.

If you don’t already have these credentials, generate them in your GoDaddy account.

To prove domain ownership, create a DNS TXT record using the provided values.

API Manager checks whether the record has been propagated and validated.

ACME records expire after a limited time. If they expire, new records are generated automatically when you retry verification.

After ACME verification, additional DNS records are generated.

These records enable secure communication and complete the verification process.

Verification is asynchronous and depends on DNS propagation and external validation.

You can close the verification dialog and return later. The status continues to update in the background.

If verification isn’t completed:

When verification is successful:
