EasyDNS

EasyDNS is a domain registrar and DNS management platform that provides domain registration, zone management, and DNS record configuration services.

Use Cases the Adapter Solves

  • Domain Inventory and Visibility: Track all registered domains across your organization, including registration details, expiry dates, and next renewal dates to prevent unexpected domain expirations.
  • DNS Record Management and Compliance: Monitor DNS records and configurations to ensure proper DNS hygiene, detect unauthorized DNS changes, and maintain compliance with organizational DNS policies.

Required Ports

  • TCP port 443 (HTTPS)

Authentication Methods

API Token Authentication

The adapter authenticates using HTTP Basic Authentication with the EasyDNS REST API. The User Name and API Token are used to create an Authorization header for all API requests.

APIs

Axonius uses the EasyDNS REST API. The following endpoints are called:

  • GET /domains/list/{username} - Retrieves a list of all domains registered for the user
  • GET /domain/{domain_name} - Fetches detailed information for each domain including expiry date, registration status, and service details
  • GET /zones/records/all/{domain_name} - Retrieves all DNS records for each domain with pagination support

Required Permissions

The EasyDNS API requires valid API credentials (API Token and Key) to access domain and DNS record information.

Note: The exact permission names should be confirmed with your EasyDNS administrator or EasyDNS support, as the API documentation is not publicly available.

Supported From Version

Supported from Axonius version 8.0.26
