This article relates to adding domains to your Office 365 subscription; in order to do so, you first have to follow the initial configuration steps for your subscription. Please contact help@blacknight.com to go through the initial setup for new plans.
You need to add domains directly in the 365 portal.
For how to access the portal please see here: Office 365: Accessing your Account
Please see here for how to add a domain in the Microsoft 365 portal:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/admin/setup/add-domain?view=o365-worldwide
You will need to set up the required DNS records for the domain on the nameservers the domain is using. If the domain is using Blacknight's nameserver that can be done through your Blacknight control panel.
The domain also needs to be verified by the Office 365 environment.
There are two scenarios involved in this process:
- Your domain uses our nameservers:
- Add any dns records you need as per the following: Add DNS records
- Your domain uses nameservers elsewhere:
- You will need to add the relevant DNS records to your domain, at where you control the DNS for the domain.
- You can see the relevant DNS records by clicking on the domain entry shown on screen.
Note: You can trigger a task to verify the DNS records by clicking on Verify on the domain entry:
Microsoft Ofice 365 >> Domains >> Domain Entry (Verify)
Once your domain has been verified in full, the Office 365 system will then accept email - and allow the sending of email, for your domain.
At this point, you would then be ready to add Users to the Office 365 subscription, if you have not added them already - see the following article:
