Godaddy allows @ as host name in txt record. you should enter @ in hostname and google-site verification code in txt value. or you can check https://in.godaddy.com/help/add-a-txt-record-19232 or you can call in customer care of godaddy and ask them to add this record in DNS in technical help. They will do

  • Hi Ketan. Thanks for your help. Actually It helped. Is it mandatory to have SSL certificate? – Anindyo Bose Apr 09 '19 at 16:29
  • Getting Following Error -> Can’t connect securely to this page This might be because the site uses outdated or unsafe TLS security settings. If this keeps happening, try contacting the website’s owner. – Anindyo Bose Apr 09 '19 at 16:37

    not mandatory SSL I guess. where you getting this error exactly? while using firebase syntax or while loading your site in browser? – Ketan Kotak Apr 09 '19 at 22:48
  • Thanks Ketan for helping me. It is fixed. It takes a bit of time to map and provide SSL. Firebase Provides that Automatically. – Anindyo Bose Apr 10 '19 at 09:54

    @AnindyoBose can you share your godaddy DNS management config screenshot? with ref to some old post *CNAME www mysitesample.firebaseapp.com 1 Hour* adding Cname is not needed? like this https://i.stack.imgur.com/7ILGJ.png have you added cname ? (got it from this post https://stackoverflow.com/questions/48252041/dns-firebase-connect-to-namecheap-still-says-needs-setup/48936896) – LOG_TAG Aug 13 '19 at 08:55
  • The `@` is quite important to verify. – Jimmy Lin Apr 14 '20 at 06:14

The terminology between google site verification and the GoDaddy DNS records are slightly confusing, they use different words though they mean the same. Basically you need TXT and CNAME records to be updated in DNS provider or domain hosting provider records, here in GoDaddy DNS records.

enter image description here

Updating TXT record alone works, CNAME label and destination update as well important, especially when you are editing the records post initial authentication.
