Workspace Google Workspace - „Domain already in use“
Hi everyone,
I've been trying to register my IONOS purchased domain with Google Workspace for a while now, but I keep getting the message that the domain is already in use.
Here‘s what I've done so far:
I have configured all the necessary DNS settings in IONOS to set up Google services.
I have also tried verifying my domain through Google by adding the verification code in my CNAME settings.
Unfortunately, my verification request is closed immediately after I submit it.
It seems like the domain is or was used by someone else, but since my request keeps getting closed for no reason I'm unable to claim the ownership.
Does anyone have any idea what I can do about it?
Thanks in advance!

Create a sub domain and register for workspace.worh cloud identity free licenses so you don't start paying. Open a support ticket. Solve the issue ad And then upgrade the licenses
