A TXT record is text in free, human-readable form, that is associated with an Internet domain as a DNS record for one purpose or another. The most widespread use of a TXT record is to add your site to an Internet search engine or to an analytics platform, that offers info about the traffic to your Internet site. Creating this type of a record may serve as confirmation that you're the domain address owner and they'll provide the content that you should include as the value when you create the record. Another use of a TXT record is to confirm that an email message is sent by the domain address owner and from a trusted server - this is the so-called SPF protection, that prevents any electronic address set up under your domain name to be forged and unauthorized individuals to send out unsolicited mail making it appear like it was mailed from your own mailbox. You can include any other information that you'd like to be associated with your domain name in a TXT record as well.
