Does anyone know the correct format for TXT records on DigitalOcean’s DNS Management? Do strings w/spaces in them require quotes around the entire TXT value? For example:
@ r=abc1 include:xyz.protection.example.com -all
- or -
@ “r=abc1 include:xyz.protection.example.com -all”
- or none of the above?

@Etel; thanks! The Office 365 deployment assistant did not recognize the TXT record until I formatted it as you suggested.
