**CNAME Host Record**: The unique CNAME host record returned based on the domain name.

### File Verification

<!-- image-todo -->

**1, Create a file**: The file verification method generally requires your site administrator to operate, first create C5704CE6BB76F223420F371E8346A609.txt, and paste the verification file content into the file for saving.

**2, Create a directory**:  Create a subdirectory of .well-known/pki-validation in the root directory of the site. Note that the first-tier directory is a hidden directory with a dot. The command in Windows is: m".well-known". Put the created file in this sub-directory; if your site cannot create a hidden directory for some reason, choose other DNS verification method.

**3, Configuration Detection**

<wrap em>(1) HTTPS configuration verification link: https://domain+/.well-known/pki-validation/C5704CE6BB76F223420F371E8346A609.txt</wrap>

<wrap em>(2) HTTP configuration detection link: http://domain+/.well-known/pki-validation/C5704CE6BB76F223420F371E8346A609.txt</wrap>

The domain+ is your domain file, and the content should not end with a return or newline character. File verification does not support any form of redirection, it needs to directly respond to the 200 status code and file content.


### Resolution Check

**Manual Resolution**: Manual resolution can help customers verify if the added resolution is correct

 Local client shell command verification, nslookup -q=CNAME file record. primary domain     
   
<!-- image-todo -->


For certificate revocation orders using txt verification, use the command nslookup -q=TXT Host record. primary domain
