Verifying your domain

Verification is not necessary to use the automated add-to-calendar button on your
domain. However, in order to keep your data secure, your domain will need to be verified in order to see usage and analytics for the automated add-to-calendar button on that domain.

  1. First, click the shield icon next to the entry for the domain you just added

    2. DNS Records: Add a TXT record to your domain configuration
  3. Follow the steps for your chosen method to verify your domain and unlock the usage statistics for your automated Add to Calendar button

Why do I need to add a domain?

In order to use our services, you need a license. By adding the domain(s) where you use our services, you let our system know that the domain is part of your account and has a valid license.

I use AddEvent on a SaaS platform and don't want to add domains manually

If you want to add usage domains automatically, simply include the client tag in your button code. Take a look at the documentation.

What happens if I forget to add my domain?

Our engine record and analyze incoming usage. In case activity on an unlicensed domain is detected, our robot will try to send out a notification letting you know about the missing license.
