  - `result.data` (array)
    An array of objects containing the results from each  parameter’s DCV check.



 The function returns the results from the  parameter in the same order in which you called them.

  - `result.data.dcv_string` (string)
    The expected value of the queried DNS record.
    Example: "_dcv-test-record=wsWRlG9IsG7KNnLdIsx9Oz2oTw8m5q0imRR9L6LnDBz14sZelvDHqrJyJc6LA0DY"
