* * *
| | |
| --- | --- |
| #### **Why email authentication?**

| #### **Why authenticate your email?**

| #### **Why set up email authentication?**

| | |
| --- | --- |
| ### Set up authentication: **SPF, DKIM, and DMARC**
* * * | |
| #### **What are SPF and DKIM?**
SPF lets you authorize senders that are allowed to send email on behalf of your domain. DKIM signs every outgoing message with your unique signature, so receiving servers can verify the message came from you. SPF and DKIM let receiving servers verify that messages that appear to be from your domain are legitimate. These authentication methods also help prevent your messages from being marked as spam. (1:13) | #### [What are SPF and DKIM?](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8V2nfKLzc84) |
| #### **What is DMARC?**
(need to update - wrong text from video) SPF and DKIM help prevent spammers from impersonating your organization, and help ensure messages sent from your organization aren't marked as spam. (0:37) | #### [What is DMARC?](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=swz8sxA1NF8) |
| #### Using SPF, DKIM and DMARC
When you use SPF, DKIM, and DMARC, receiving servers can verify that email senders are authorized by you and that the senders are being transparent about message identity. (0:48) | #### [Using SPF, DKIM and DMARC](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qA-MVF2ve10) |
| #### Before your start: Check your current SPF and DKIM
Before you set up email authentication, you can use the Google Admin Toolbox to check if SPF and DKIM already been set up. (1:27) | #### [Before your start: Check your current SPF and DKIM](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FfoqPFv6AMA) |
| | |
| --- | --- |
| #### Set up SPF
Set up SPF by adding a DNS TXT record at your domain provider. You can use a standard SPF TXT record for sending email with Google Workspace only. Or, create a custom SPF TXT record when you use third-party senders in addition to Workspace. (2:19) | #### [Set up SPF](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G4RJucbeFf8) |
| #### Set up DKIM
To set up DKIM, create a DKIM key in your Google Admin console, add the key to the DNS records at your domain provider, then turn on DKIM signing in your Admin console. (3:10) | #### [Set up DKIM](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GEsXogRshpM) |
| #### Set up DMARC
DMARC lets you manage messages that have been checked by SPF and DKIM. You can set your DMARC policy to quarantine or reject messages that don't pass SPF or DKIM. DMARC reports help you identify any issues with your email, such as spoofing or authentication issues. (1:28) | #### [Set up DMARC](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xhFx_VQB4RA) |
| #### Generate a DKIM key for your domain
Sign into your Google Admin console and create a DKIM key for your domain. (1:23) | #### [Generate a DKIM key for your domain](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Toz75gMmwTg) |
| #### Add DKIM domain key to domain DNS records
Add the DKIM key from your Google Admin console to your domain provider's DNS records. (0:55) | #### [Add DKIM domain key to domain DNS records](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ff7JTYbZPwk) |
| #### Turn on DKIM signing
After you add your DKIM key at your domain provider, turn on DKIM signing in your Google Admin console. (0:52) | #### [Turn on DKIM signing](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tw0ihW73T1A) |

# Customize a Google Workspace service URL - Google Workspace Admin Help
[Skip to main content](https://support.google.com/a/answer/53340?hl=en&ref_topic=29260#search-form)
Customize a Google Workspace service URL
========================================
You can make it easy for users to find your core Google Workspace services by creating a custom web address (URL) for each service. Create custom addresses in your primary and secondary domains for services including Gmail, Calendar, Google Groups, Sites, and others.
For example, with a custom address, users can sign in to their Gmail inbox at _mail.example.com_ instead of the longer default address _mail.google.com/a/example.com_. Or they can sign in to their Google Groups app at _groups.example.com_, their Calendar at _calendar.example.com_, and so on.
**If you purchased your domain from a Google partner** when you signed up for Google Workspace, you don't need to create custom addresses for Gmail, Calendar, Drive, Sites, or Google Groups. We've customized these addresses for you.
When you or your users open a custom URL, the browser displays the original Google Workspace service URL.
Customize a service address
---------------------------
1. [Sign in](https://admin.google.com/)
with an _administrator_ account to the Google Admin console.
If you aren’t using an administrator account, you can’t access the Admin console.
2. Go to Menu  [Account > Account settings > Custom URLs](https://admin.google.com/ac/accountsettings/customurl)
.
Requires having the [Service Settings administrator privilege](https://support.google.com/a/answer/1219251#service_settings)
.
3. (Optional) Select the domain you want to update from the list.
4. Under a service URL, enter a prefix.
**Note:** Example prefixes for Google services include _calendar_, _drive_, _mail_, _groups_, and _sites_. If the prefix is already assigned to another service, remove or rename the prefix and click **Save**. Then add the prefix to the service URL.
5. Click **Save**.
6. Choose one:
* Follow the instructions to add a CNAME record for each service address you're customizing. Then go to step 7.
* Click **I'll do this later**, which cancels your changes.
7. Sign in to your account at your domain host's website (not Google) and add a CNAME record to your domain's DNS records.
**Note:** For example, to create the Gmail address _mail_.example_._com, add a CNAME record that points _mail_ to **ghs.googlehosted.com.** Your domain host records will be something like this:
| | | |
| --- | --- | --- |
| **Type** | **Name or Host** | **Value or Address** |
| CNAME | mail | ghs.googlehosted.com |
| CNAME | calendar | ghs.googlehosted.com |
| CNAME | groups | ghs.googlehosted.com |
For more information, go to [Add a CNAME record to your domain's DNS records](https://support.google.com/a/answer/47283)
.
8. In the Admin console, click **I've completed these steps**.
Troubleshoot
------------
If you get an error message, check the following:
* The custom URL may be in use as a customized Google Sites address. For details, go to [Map a new URL to your Google site](https://support.google.com/a/answer/7392423)
.
* You entered duplicate URLs.
* **If your domain uses a security measure that requires HTTPS connections**, such as as [HTTP Strict Transport Security](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTTP_Strict_Transport_Security)
, you can't customize service addresses for your domain. The Admin console supports only HTTP connections for custom URLs. You can check the HTTP Strict Transport Security status for your domain at [https://hstspreload.org](https://hstspreload.org/)
.
