APRF Record Generator
Build the _aprf._domainkey TXT record for Aggregate Performance Reporting (APRF) - the draft standard that lets mailbox providers email you daily reports on where your mail lands. Set your DKIM signing domain, selector and report address, and get the exact record to publish. No login.
Advanced: segment reports (sdi)
Optional. Breaks reports out by a header you DKIM-sign (by campaign, brand or region). Leave blank if unsure - Comcast's beta does not use it yet. Keep segment names generic; they appear verbatim in reports.
About the APRF Record Generator
Aggregate Performance Reporting (APRF) is a proposed IETF standard - draft-brotman-aggregate-performance-reporting - that lets a mailbox provider email a sender aggregated data on where its mail landed (inbox versus spam) and how recipients engaged. It borrows the pattern DMARC made routine: publish a DNS record naming a reporting address, and receive machine-readable reports by email. The key difference is that APRF is keyed to your DKIM signing domain (the d= value), not your From address, and reports arrive as JSON.
This generator assembles the exact _aprf._domainkey TXT record from your signing domain, selector and report address. If your reporting mailbox is on a different domain than the one being signed, it also builds the destination consent record that lets a provider confirm the mailbox agreed to receive reports - a step many guides miss.
APRF is still an Internet-Draft, not a published RFC, and today Comcast is the only mailbox provider sending reports. Publishing the record does no harm and readies you for wider adoption. To understand the format end to end, read our full APRF explainer.
Frequently asked questions
What is an APRF record?
An APRF record is a TXT record at <selector>._aprf._domainkey.yourdomain that tells supporting mailbox providers where to email your Aggregate Performance Reporting data. It carries a mandatory v=APRFv1 tag and a rua= reporting address, mirroring the way DMARC reporting works.
Which domain does APRF use - the From domain or the DKIM domain?
APRF is keyed to the DKIM signing domain (the d= value in your DKIM-Signature), not the From address. Publish the record on the exact domain your mail signs with - there is no subdomain fallback.
How do I set up APRF?
Pick the DKIM signing domain and selector your mail uses, choose a mailbox to receive reports, and publish the generated TXT record. If your reporting mailbox is on a different domain, also publish the destination consent record this tool produces.
Is APRF a published standard yet?
Not yet. APRF is an IETF Internet-Draft (draft-brotman-aggregate-performance-reporting), not a published RFC. Only Comcast currently emits reports. Publishing the record is safe and readies you for wider adoption.
