This page describes how to associate a domain with a project for verification
purposes, and also how to manage your notification preferences.
Associating a domain with a project
Domain verification ensures that push notifications delivered from
Pub/Sub and other Google APIs are sent only to
domains associated with the subscribing project. It serves as abuse prevention,
to stop anyone from sending messages to someone else's domain.
To associate a domain with a project, follow the steps for the API from which
you're receiving push notifications.
The Communication page in the Google Cloud console lets you opt into
product-specific notifications, such as upcoming maintenance windows, and
updates and offers, such as announcements of new features.
To control who receives other types of notifications, such as notifications for
billing issues, use
Essential Contacts.
To opt into, or out of, product notifications, updates, and offers:
Go to the Communication page in the Google Cloud console:
By default, any changes you make apply only to the current project. To
select additional projects, click the drop-down list of projects, and select
the projects you want to update.
A toggle indicates whether each type of notification is
check_circleOn or
circleOff. Click the toggles to turn
each notification on or off.
Changes to notifications are automatically saved. When you're finished making
changes, you can navigate away from the page or close the browser window. To
receive mobile notifications, you must install the
Google Cloud console mobile app.
