# Understanding Domain Status

Domains can have different statuses, including:

* `not_started`: You’ve added a domain to Resend, but you haven’t clicked on `Verify DNS Records` yet.
* `pending`: Resend is still trying to verify the domain.
* `verified`: Your domain is successfully verified for sending in Resend.
* `failed`: Resend was unable to detect the DNS records within 72 hours.
* `temporary_failure`: For a previously verified domain, Resend will periodically check for the DNS record required for verification. If at some point, Resend is unable to detect the record, the status would change to “Temporary Failure”. Resend will recheck for the DNS record for 72 hours, and if it’s unable to detect the record, the domain status would change to “Failure”. If it’s able to detect the record, the domain status would change to “Verified”.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://humanic.gitbook.io/humanic/getting-started-with-humanic/domain-setup/understanding-domain-status.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
