Im getting Challenge is invalid which is understandable since DNS has not been updated with the TXT record. So my question is, after running the script, do I add the token value presented after "token": to the DNS server as TXT?

'

' ERROR: Challenge is invalid! (returned: invalid) (result: {
        "type": "dns-01",
        "status": "invalid",
  "error": {
    "type": "urn:ietf:params:acme:error:dns",
    "detail": "DNS problem: NXDOMAIN looking up TXT for _acme-challenge.my.example.com",
    "status": 400
  },
  "url": "https://acme-v02.api.letsencrypt.org/acme/challenge/cdsuhihdfushduhfisuhuhsufhushdfauiiuf",
  "token": "jsifneriufhsfnasuhnfasnruafegigsi-si"
})
