update_dns_record

Every field is replaced, the type included, so pass the record as it should be afterwards and copy the fields that stay the same, ttl too, from list_dns_records. The new record follows the same rules as one added with create_dns_record, and a record with Locked true cannot be changed: the refusal names the site or email domain that holds it.

Sites, email or services that rely on the old record can stop working, so the tool tells the client to confirm the change with you first. It is refused when the record no longer exists. The answer is the saved record, and the change usually reaches every DNS server within a few minutes. It needs the Manage domains permission, and the domain must be active or expiring. The workspace can make 30 domain changes a minute, shared with the Domains page and covering DNS records, nameservers, the registrant, the transfer lock, auto-renew and transfer codes, and a refusal says how long to wait. See Edit or delete a record.
