POST
/api/v1/domains/{hostname}/dns
curl --request POST \
--url https://digize.com/api/v1/domains/example/dns \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--header 'Idempotency-Key: 5f1c2a8e-3b7d-4c55-9a0e-1f2d3c4b5a69' \
--header 'x-api-key: <x-api-key>' \
--data '{ "record": { "type": "A", "name": "example", "content": "example", "ttl": 1, "proxied": true, "priority": 1, "comment": "example" } }'

Adds a DNS record to a full-setup domain: A, AAAA, CNAME, MX, TXT, CAA or NS, named within the domain (@ for the domain itself).

Needs the sites:write permission.

hostname
required
string
>= 3 characters <= 253 characters
Idempotency-Key

>= 1 characters <= 255 characters

Makes the request safe to send again: for 24 hours the same key and request answer the first response without repeating the change.
