TXT records are used for various purposes, including domain verification and SPF/DKIM records for email authentication. To add one, go to the 'DNS' tab, click 'Add record', select 'TXT' as the type, enter the name (@ or a subdomain), the text value in the 'Content' field, set the TTL to Auto, and click 'Save'.
