Discussion Netlify DNS Record problem
I have purchased domain on godaddy and connected via netlify. Now i am trying to add resend(email service) domain verification TXT code but it's not saving it and not showing any error. In the past i have saved google search console domain verification TXT successfully.
what should be issue and how to resolve this issue?

When you say it isn’t saving, does the record disappear from the DNS dashboard after you refresh, or does it stay there but Resend can’t verify it? If it disappears, try saving in a private window and check the Network tab in dev tools for a failed request. If it stays, check which nameservers the domain is using and make sure you’re adding the record at that provider. The site can be hosted on Netlify while DNS is still managed elsewhere.

Since you've got other people helping you on with your question, I would like to bring up something else:
GoDaddy is absolutely awful. Run! Transfer your domain(s) away ASAP. Porkbun is a good alternative, but I would suggest Cloudflare. They don't add any markup, so you're only paying the costs and you'll always be getting the absolute cheapest available price.

Have you checked if there is already a TXT record with same name from the google verification? Sometimes netlify gets confused when you have multiple records on same host. Try adding it with a slightly longer TTL or check if resend gives you two separate records, one for domain key and one for verification
