The `[domain]` argument accepts either the zone's domain name or its numeric zone ID, and is optional everywhere. Omit it and the CLI uses the zone linked with `bunny dns zones link`, or prompts you to pick one. `records update` and `records remove` likewise prompt you to pick a record when the ID is omitted. `records` aliases to `record` / `rec`; `zones` aliases to `zone`; `scripts` aliases to `script`. ## Records Manage the DNS records within a zone. ```bash theme={null} # List records within a zone bunny dns records list example.com bunny dns rec ls example.com # Add records (use '@' for the zone apex) bunny dns records add example.com api A 198.51.100.1 bunny dns records add example.com '@' MX mail.example.com 10 bunny dns records add example.com '@' SRV 10 0 389 sip.example.com bunny dns records add example.com '@' CAA '0 issue "letsencrypt.org"' # Link a record to a pull zone or Edge Script bunny dns records add example.com cdn PullZone --pull-zone 12345 bunny dns records add example.com fn Script --script 67890 # Interactive wizard: omit the record type (or all args) to be prompted bunny dns records add bunny dns records add example.com # Update / remove a record by its ID bunny dns records update example.com 123 --value 198.51.100.2 --ttl 3600 bunny dns records remove example.com 123 # Add a preset set of records (email providers, verification, ...) bunny dns records preset list bunny dns records preset google-workspace example.com bunny dns records preset bluesky example.com --param did=did:plc:abc123 # Scan for a domain's existing records and import them bunny dns records scan example.com # Import / export a BIND zone file bunny dns records import example.com ./zonefile.txt bunny dns records export example.com # print to stdout bunny dns records export example.com --file ./my.zone # write to a path bunny dns records export example.com --save # write to ./example.com.zone ``` ### Record value ordering Positional values for `records add` follow the record type: | Type | Positional values | | - | - | | `A` / `AAAA` / `CNAME` / `TXT` / `NS` | `` | | `MX` | ` ` | | `SRV` | ` ` | | `CAA` | `' ""'` (single quoted string) | | `PullZone` | none, pass `--pull-zone ` | | `Script` | none, pass `--script ` | Omit the record type (or all arguments) to run an interactive wizard that prompts for the zone, type, and per-type values. ## Zones Manage zone lifecycle, directory linking, statistics, nameservers, DNSSEC, and query logging. ```bash theme={null} # Lifecycle bunny dns zones list bunny dns zones create example.com bunny dns zones show example.com bunny dns zones delete example.com # Query statistics (defaults to the last 30 days; text mode draws a bar chart) bunny dns zones stats example.com bunny dns zones stats example.com --from 2026-05-01 --to 2026-05-31 # Link this directory to a zone (writes .bunny/dns.json) bunny dns zones link example.com bunny dns zones unlink # Check whether the zone is delegated to bunny.net bunny dns zones nameservers example.com bunny dns zones ns example.com # DNSSEC: enable prints the DS record to register at your domain registrar bunny dns zones dnssec enable example.com bunny dns zones dnssec disable example.com # DNS query logging: enable to start collecting logs (optionally anonymize IPs) bunny dns zones logging enable example.com bunny dns zones logging enable example.com --anonymize-ip --anonymization drop bunny dns zones logging disable example.com ``` ## Scripts Manage [Scriptable DNS](/docs/dns/scriptable/introduction.md) scripts: code that computes a DNS answer at query time, such as geo routing, weighted or failover answers, and closest-region selection. These are separate from Edge Scripts (`bunny scripts`, a different runtime). A script only affects DNS once it backs a `SCRIPT` record on a zone. Use `attach` to add that record from the script side. ```bash theme={null} # Scaffold a project: entry file, tsconfig, and package.json with a devDep on # @bunny.net/scriptable-dns-types for editor autocomplete bunny dns scripts init # interactive wizard bunny dns scripts init geo-router --example geo --deploy # Create a remote script without scaffolding bunny dns scripts create geo-router # Upload and publish bunny dns scripts deploy # linked script's entry file bunny dns scripts deploy handleQuery.js bunny dns scripts deploy handleQuery.js 12345 # target a specific script bunny dns scripts deploy --skip-publish # stage without publishing # Link the current directory to a script / list all scripts bunny dns scripts link 12345 bunny dns scripts list # Point a hostname at a script by adding a SCRIPT record bunny dns scripts attach example.com api --script 12345 bunny dns scripts attach example.com '@' # apex, using the linked script ``` Scripts resolve without an explicit ID in this order: explicit `[id]`, then `.bunny/dns-script.json` (written by `link` / `create` / `init`), then the interactive picker. `init` starters via `--example`: `empty`, `geo`, `closest`, `weighted`, `failover`, `pullzone`. Pass `--deploy` to also create the script on bunny.net after scaffolding. `attach` always confirms before writing the record, and attaching at the apex (`'@'`) prints a stronger warning listing any records already at that name. ## Flags | Flag | Commands | Description | | - | - | - | | `--ttl` | `records add`, `records update` | Time to live in seconds | | `--comment` | `records add`, `records update` | Optional comment for the record | | `--pull-zone`, `--script` | `records add`, `records update` | Link a `PullZone` / `Script` record by ID | | `--name`, `--value`, `--type`, `--priority`, `--weight`, `--port`, `--flags`, `--tag`, `--disabled` | `records update` | Edit individual record fields (see `bunny dns records update --help`) | | `--param` | `records preset` | Preset value as `key=value` (repeatable) | | `--yes`, `-y` | `records scan` | Import without confirming | | `--file`, `--save` | `records export` | Write to a path, or to `.zone` in the current directory | | `--from`, `--to` | `zones stats` | Date range (defaults to the last 30 days) | | `--anonymize-ip`, `--anonymization` | `zones logging enable` | Anonymize client IPs in logs (`onedigit` \| `drop`) | | `--example`, `--deploy`, `--skip-install` | `scripts init` | Starter template, create on bunny.net, skip type dependency install | | `--skip-publish` | `scripts deploy` | Stage the upload without publishing | | `--script`, `--ttl` | `scripts attach` | DNS script ID (defaults to the linked script), record TTL | | `--force` | `records remove`, `zones delete`, `zones dnssec disable`, `zones logging disable`, `scripts attach` | Skip the confirmation prompt | This documentation is built and hosted on [Mintlify](https://mintlify.com), a developer documentation platform.
