# Configuring SPF record in WIX

For a domain email to work properly via [WIX ](https://www.wix.com/), an email authentication DNS [SPF](https://www.zone.lv/help/en/kb/spf-record/) record should be added to the domain. In the case of **Wixdns.net** (WIX) name servers (NS), the corresponding authentication record must be added via their control panel.

The value of the Zone SPF record is following:

`TXT "v=spf1 a mx include:_spf.zone.lv -all"`

In the **WIX** control panel, you should first go to the domains view: “[**Domains**](https://premium.wix.com/wix/api/mpContainerStaticController#/domains)“. Then you should click on “**Manage DNS Records**” for the desired domain.

After making the appropriate selection, a new record should be added, i.e. “**+ Add Record**“, and the record type, i.e. “type”, must be “**TXT**” (do not set “type” to “SPF”).

When adding a record, the “**Host**” field must be left empty, the “**Value**” field must be filled with the value of the Zone SPF record, i.e. **v=spf1 a mx include:\_spf.zone.lv -all.**

 Note! When adding an SPF entry, the WIX help article can be helpful: <https://support.wix.com/en/article/adding-or-updating-spf-records-in-your-wix-account>

 Important! After adding the corresponding SPF entry, the change will take effect within **1-2 hours** (DNS propagation speed).
