Source: R/yay.gen.R
netlify_dns_records_set.Rd

Sets DNS records on Netlify for the specified domain using the createDnsRecord endpoint of Netlify's RESTful API. DNS records must be provided as a dataframe/tibble with the columns type, hostname, value, ttl, priority, weight, port, flag and tag. Further columns are silently ignored.

Usage

netlify_dns_records_set(
  records,
  domain,
  token = pal::pkg_config_val("netlify_token"),
  max_tries = 3L
)

Arguments

records

DNS records. A dataframe/tibble with the columns type, hostname, value, ttl, priority, weight, port, flag and tag. The first three columns are mandatory, columns not listed here are silently ignored.

domain

Domain name to set DNS records for. This is translated into the corresponding Netlify DNS Zone. A character scalar.

token

Netlify personal access token used for authentication. A character scalar.

max_tries

Maximum number of attempts to retry in case of an HTTP error. An integerish scalar.

Value

The newly set DNS records. A tibble with the columns id, dns_zone_id, site_id, managed, type, hostname, value, ttl, priority, weight, port, flag, and tag, invisibly.

Details

Supported are the DNS record types A, AAAA, ALIAS, CAA, CNAME, MX, NS, SPF, SRV and TXT. Netlify's own custom record types NETLIFY and NETLIFY6 cannot be altered via the API and must be configured via Netlify's web interface.
