# DNS: Cloudflare

> Publish your SentFromAI DNS records in Cloudflare.

After adding a [custom domain](/guides/custom-domains), SentFromAI gives you a set of DKIM, SPF,
DMARC, and MX records. Here's how to add them in Cloudflare.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open DNS settings">
    Cloudflare dashboard → select your domain → **DNS → Records**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Add the DKIM records (CNAME ×3)">
    For each, **Add record** → Type **CNAME**, Name = the `*._domainkey…` value, Target =
    `…dkim.amazonses.com`. **Set Proxy status to DNS only (grey cloud)** — mail records must not be
    proxied.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Add SPF + DMARC (TXT)">
    Type **TXT**, Name and Content exactly as shown (e.g. `v=spf1 include:amazonses.com ~all` and
    the `_dmarc` record). Cloudflare adds the quotes for you — don't paste extra quotes.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Add the MX records">
    Type **MX**, Name as shown, Mail server = the `…amazonaws.com` / `…amazonses.com` target,
    Priority **10**.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Warning>
  Keep all of these **DNS only (grey cloud)**. Proxying (orange cloud) breaks mail authentication
  and routing.
</Warning>

SentFromAI verifies automatically once the records resolve — usually within minutes. Track status on
the **Domains** page in the [dashboard](https://console.sentfrom.ai), or call
`POST /domains/{id}/verify` to re-check now.
