No. We have no immediate plan yet. We have not seen much request for this feature.

Hello,

Is it possible to manage (update/delete/add new) DNS using control panel API?
If not, is it something that will appear in the future? If yes, when?

Thank you,

Ina Vaduva

I'd sure love to see this feature.

I would too. Adding Sub-domains to our account would be nice.

Noted..

If we were to make this available, how do you all think we should design this? Any idea.

DNS record is kinda complex record and the data type could be pretty confusing.

It would save me effort from writing my own asmx (which is 1/2 way completed) which would navigate the actual dns web pages.The api approach would be less overhead on the server and make more sense. I didn't know this was being considered until I accidently read this tread the other day.

The API has been updated to include DNS methods. New documentation at http://forum.discountasp.net/showthread.php?t=3522.

To change DNS records, you must delete and add.
