# Listing domain validation status
<a name="sdk-listdomainvalidations"></a>

The following example shows how to use the [ListCertificateDomainValidations](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/acm/latest/APIReference/API_ListCertificateDomainValidations.html) function. The function returns a list of domain validation summaries—one for each domain on the certificate. Each summary contains the active validation configuration and (during a migration) the requested validation configuration with the CNAME record to add to your DNS configuration. The example shows how to handle pagination with `NextToken`.
