Created

Domains will be created, but not serving traffic unless it is verified. Verification status is provided in the ownership_status field:

• TXT_VERIFIED indicates the domain ownership has been verified.
• TXT_VERIFICATION_PENDING indicates the domain ownership still requires verification using TXT record.

NOTE: To verify the domain, a DNS TXT record must be added to your domain registry using the txt_verification_key and txt_verification_value fields provided on the newly created domain. After the TXT record is in place, POST to /installs/{install_id}/domains/{domain_id}/verification to complete verification.
