# Add Molin DNS records on GoDaddy

> Publish the NS records Molin shows you when connecting a custom sending domain.

When you connect a custom sending domain in Molin, the wizard shows you 4 NS records to add at your registrar. This guide covers adding them in GoDaddy.

<Note>You only need this guide if GoDaddy manages DNS for the domain you're connecting. If you transferred DNS to another provider (e.g. Cloudflare), follow that provider's guide instead.</Note>

## Prerequisites

* A GoDaddy account with the domain you want to use
* The exact records Molin shows you in the [email setup wizard](https://molin.ai/app/channels/email) (4 NS records)

## Steps

1. Sign in at [godaddy.com](https://godaddy.com/) and open the [Domain Portfolio](https://dcc.godaddy.com/control/portfolio)
2. Select your domain to open the **Domain Settings** page
3. Select **DNS** to view your DNS records
4. For each **NS** record shown in the Molin wizard:
   1. Click **Add New Record** and choose **NS** from the **Type** menu
   2. Set **Name** to the value shown in the wizard's **Name** column — this is the subdomain you chose to connect (e.g. enter `molin` if you connected `molin.yourshop.com`, or `@` for a root domain)
   3. Paste the nameserver value (e.g. `ns1.molin.ai`) into **Value**
   4. Leave **TTL** at the default (1 hour)
   5. Click **Save** (or **Save All Records** if you added multiple at once via **Add More Records**)

## Verify

1. Return to the Molin email setup wizard
2. Click **Verify now**

GoDaddy DNS changes usually take effect in 30 seconds to a few minutes, occasionally up to an hour. The Molin wizard checks every 30 seconds, so you can leave it open while you wait.

## Troubleshooting

* **GoDaddy strips the trailing dot from NS values** — that's fine. Paste `ns1.molin.ai` (no trailing dot) and let GoDaddy normalize it.
* **"This record already exists" error on an NS record** — GoDaddy creates default NS records for new subdomains. Delete any existing NS records on the same Name before adding the Molin ones, otherwise they clash and verification fails.
