A TXT record is text in free, human-readable form, that's associated with an Internet domain as a DNS record for one purpose or other. The most frequent use of a TXT record is to add your web site to a search engine or to an analytics platform, that provides details about the web traffic to your Internet site. Setting up such a record functions as confirmation that you're the domain owner and they will supply the content that you ought to include as the value when you create the record. Another purpose of a TXT record is to verify that an e mail message is sent by the domain owner and from a trusted server - this is the so-called SPF protection, that prevents any electronic address created under your domain to be forged and unauthorized individuals to send out junk e-mail making it look like it was mailed from your own mailbox. You could add any other information that you'd like to be associated with your domain in a TXT record as well.
