Features

AUTO SCANNING

It's never been easier to transfer the details from your existing zones. Our auto scanning tool automatically scans the Internet for your existing DNS zones, and for the most part, recognizes them and adds them to the DNS Console. This saves you time and helps to prevent mistakes.

DOCS & API

You can also use all of DNS Console's features with our handy API. Automate your DNS zone management with the help of the REST-API's detailed documentation. There's an array of programming examples in PHP, Go, and Python to help you get started.

ACCESS

With a single sign on, you can access not only the DNS Console, but also Hetzner Robot, Hetzner Cloud, and Hetzner Accounts (where your main customer information is located). And to securely access the DNS API, you can create personal access tokens.

ALL FEATURES ALSO VIA API

Automate your DNS entry management to the max. All of DNS Console's features are also available via our developer-friendly REST-API. Our detailed documentation includes programming examples and helps you get started.
