    I had added a domain as an alias domain. And I was having trouble figuring out why I couldn’t change it to the primary domain. Now I believe I understand why thank you for the clear communication. Now I have a better idea of what I need to do. Which is it looks like removing the old domain and then adding it back as a secondary domain, or rather the primary after adding it as a secondary. 😮

    @@itwithcarlos - Everything seemd to work great. In fact since I had already added the domain, MX records, DKIM etc, when I added it back it was a pretty quick switch over. The biggest issue users have had was solved by shift / refresh. Since Workspace automatically made the old Primary domain an alias, we still get mail from the old primary domain. I may need to have users have the ability to send from the old domain. Looking in to that. Thank you for setting up this video as it made the process have some certainty - we always want to receive client emails. 😁

    Hi@@itwithcarlos Our migration is in a few days. TXT record has been added. And the next step is supposed to be to add the MX records. But upon checking, it already says 'Gmail activated'. An important note to consider is somebody else is doing this for me. I asked him if he had set it up in advance and told him that I was supposed to send the set of MX records next. Based on his response, it seems that he hasn't added it yet. Do you have any explanation as to why the domain is already tagged as 'Gmail activated' even though the MX records have not been added? Thanks in advance.

    Hi Carlos! Thanks for the outstanding video! Regarding domains, when I switched the 2ndary domain to the primary domain, I was, and still am, the only user/Admin) in each domain (and each domain has the same email listed). Both domains are verified, and both are NOT Activated with Gmail. Do I need to activate Gmail only for the primary domain, and then change the old email to have the primary domain? Can I change the email's username, also?

  • @itwithcarlos

    Not activated with Gmail, means the MX record have not been updated yet. The MX record determine where the emails are going to be routed. When you update de MX for the primary domain, your GW account will receive emails that are addresses to the primary domain. Then same apply to the secondary domain. When your GW has two domains (primary and secondary), you can change your email address (or username) and any time. Hope it respond to your questions. Thank you very much!

    You can't make your new domain your primary domain, however, you can still change your email address to be with the secondary domain and even log in with your new email address (with the secondary domain). Some Google documentation says it is not possible, but I just tested and it works. So at the end of the day, you can make your email accounts to be with your secondary domain while keeping the primary domain unchanged. Hope it make sense. On the other hand, the limitation to change the primary domain could change once the domain is switched to Squarespace (you know Google is getting rid of the domain registration business and is selling it to Squarespace). Thank you.

    In this case, I suggest transferring the current Google Workspace to the reseller. This will make a smooth transition of all your data with no risk. There is a special and easy process for this case, the reseller will need to provide their reseller identifier and you will be able to generate a transfer token, The reseller will be able to transfer the account for you. Hope it helps, thank you.

So, will I be able to switch domains or no? Is it okay if I buy in squarespace? We will actually rebrand completely and were planning to buy a new domain name (secondary) and switch it as a primary domain. Do you also have recommendations where can I purchase a new domain name?

    Buying your other domain from Squarespace could be a good idea since Google is also moving all domains (including your current domain) to Squarespace. Now, in regard to changing your primary domain, Google does not allow you to change it if the current primary domain was purchased from Google Domains, however, you can still add a new domain as secondary and change all your email addresses to the new domain. You can also create new email accounts with the secondary domain. Your old domain will remain as primary. It can't be change@@user-nl1kw3xq3k
