Paste the TXT record your provider gave you, before you publish it. Nothing is looked up.
Receivers verify a DKIM signature against a public key published at selector._domainkey.yourdomain.com.
This finds those keys and checks each one the way a receiver reads it: that it parses, that it is long enough,
that it has not been revoked, and that nothing in the record tells receivers to ignore it.
A published, valid key is not the same as mail that passes DKIM. That also needs your provider to sign with it, using your domain. To see what a real message was signed with, check its headers.
DNS can't tell you. DMARC aggregate reports record the selector and the DKIM result for every message receivers saw from your domain. Report URI collects and reads them for you.
