SPF selector for DNS record

Question

one of our vendors sent me this:

In the meantime, is it possible to get the SPF selector for the DNS records we need to create for DKIM? I can submit the request and at least start the process on that piece if you can let me know what SPF selector to use.

where can i find this spf selector, in the AWS console..
we need to connect an app to Saml SSO with Okta, our dNS records are from AWS

Answer

AWS uses TXT as a record type for DNS under the Route 53 service. You need to copy the value of the generated SPF record inside a TXT entry following the instructions on this link: [https://aws.amazon.com/premiumsupport/knowledge-center/route53-spf-record/]()

For DKIM, it works the same, you need to set up the DKIM contents inside a TXT record. If you have problems with the record length you can split it as discussed in this [post](https://serverfault.com/questions/763815/route-53-doesnt-allow-adding-dkim-keys-because-length-is-too-long)
