Configure Email Domain
Verify a custom email domain for branded outbound communication.
Configure a verified email domain so you can send all outbound communication from your organization's address (e.g., team@yourbusiness.com).
Step 1: Add your domain
- Go to Settings → Company Settings → Email Domains
- Click "Add Domain"
- Enter your domain (e.g.,
yourbusiness.com)
Step 2: Add DNS records
Slate displays the DNS records you need to add. Go to your domain registrar (GoDaddy, Cloudflare, Namecheap, etc.) and add:
- DKIM records for email authentication
- SPF record to authorize Slate to send on your behalf
Copy each record exactly as shown.
Step 3: Verify
Click "Verify" in Slate. Verification may take a few minutes depending on DNS propagation.
Step 4: Add senders
Once verified, add email addresses you want to send from:
- Go to the Senders section
- Add addresses like
sales@yourbusiness.comorsupport@yourbusiness.com - Set one as the default sender
Result
All outbound email from conversations, automations, and document notifications will be delivered from your verified domain.
