Good to know
- DS records can't be changed through GoDaddy's v1 API, so DNSSEC is handled in their dashboard.
- GoDaddy's DNS API is limited to qualifying accounts. If yours isn't one, export the zone file and we'll use that.
- The minimum TTL is 600 seconds.
- Domain forwarding is a GoDaddy web feature, not a DNS record, and isn't migrated.
