Removing a DNS record on an existing domain¶

Firstly make sure you are logged into the ANS Portal and navigate to SafeDNS > View Zones and select your domain. Once you have a list of your records you can click on the trashcan next to the record and once you have removed all the records you need to finally click apply changes.

delete dns record

CLI

ans safedns record list mydomain.example #Note the ID
ans safedns record delete mydomain.example <ID>

Note

If you wish to remove a NS record while protected by DDoSX you will need to turn off DDoSX protection first as you will recieve the folloing error Error removing record [<ID>]: unexpected status code (422): title="Record protected", detail="Record '<ID>' is protected and cannot be changed", status="422", source=""

If this is not possible please raise a support request in https://portal.ans.co.uk
