Vérification ou approbation d’un domaine pour votre organisation

Vous pouvez vérifier la propriété des domaines avec GitHub pour confirmer l’identité de votre organisation.

Qui peut utiliser cette fonctionnalité ?

Organization owners can verify or approve a domain for an organization.

About domain verification

After verifying ownership of your organization's domains, a "Verified" badge will display on the organization's profile.

To display a "Verified" badge, the website and email information shown on an organization's profile must match the verified domain or domains. If the website and email address shown on your organization's profile are hosted on different domains, you must verify both domains. If the website and email address use variants of the same domain, you must verify both variants. For example, if the profile shows the website www.example.com and the email address info@example.com, you would need to verify both www.example.com and example.com.

If you confirm your organization’s identity by verifying your domain and restricting email notifications to only verified email domains, you can help prevent sensitive information from being exposed. For more information see "Best practices for preventing data leaks in your organization."

Verifying a domain for your organization

To verify a domain, you must have access to modify domain records with your domain hosting service.

  1. In the upper-right corner of GitHub, select your profile photo, then click Your organizations.

  2. Next to the organization, click Settings.

  3. In the "Security" section of the sidebar, click Verified and approved domains.

  4. Next to "Verified & approved domains for your enterprise account", click Add a domain.

  5. Under "What domain would you like to add?", type the domain you'd like to verify, then click Add domain.

  6. Follow the instructions under "Add a DNS TXT record" to create a DNS TXT record with your domain hosting service.

  7. Wait for your DNS configuration to change, which may take up to 72 hours. You can confirm your DNS configuration has changed by running the dig command on the command line, replacing TXT-RECORD-NAME with the name of the TXT record created in your DNS configuration. You should see your new TXT record listed in the command output.

  8. After confirming your TXT record is added to your DNS, follow steps one through three above to navigate to your organization's approved and verified domains.

  9. To the right of the domain that's pending verification, select the dropdown menu, then click Continue verifying.
