Title: Custom domain api.receiptmind.co stuck in TXT ownership verification

Hello Railway Support,

My custom backend domain api.receiptmind.co is stuck in ownership/TXT verification even though the DNS records are publicly resolving correctly.

Project: ReceiptMind

Environment: Production

Service: backend

Custom domain: api.receiptmind.co

I have already removed and re-added the custom domain in Railway and recreated the corresponding DNS records in Namecheap.

Public DNS checks through Google DNS (8.8.8.8) now confirm both records resolve correctly.

CNAME:

api.receiptmind.co resolves to the Railway-provided *.up.railway.app target.

TXT verification:

_railway-verif.api.receiptmind.co

resolves to:

railway-verify=04f9c349b2d62af4736b84849925e833da8775cd355c125e9cc5254d8911eb26

The CNAME is recognized, but Railway continues to show the TXT verification as pending.

Could you please check the domain verification state and manually re-trigger ownership verification and/or certificate issuance for api.receiptmind.co?

The Railway-generated backend URL is working normally, so the application itself is healthy.

Thank you.

The TXT record is published at a slightly misspelled hostname. The record name is missing the letter "y" at the end of "verify", so it reads _railway-verif instead of _railway-verify. Updating the TXT record's hostname at your registrar to match the exact name shown in your service's Settings under Networking will clear the verification.
