Huawei Cloud DNS
Migrate DNS zones to or from Huawei Cloud DNS: what's supported, what access you need, and what changes for each destination.
See how a domain's records would land at Huawei Cloud. Free and read-only.
Access we need
- Credentials
- IAM access key (AK) + secret key (SK)
- Permissions
- DNS ReadOnlyAccess for the preview; to apply, a custom policy with dns:zone:list, dns:zone:get and dns:recordset:create/update/delete (dns:zone:create to create zones).

Good to know
- Only public zones are migrated; private zones and alias records pointing at Huawei Cloud resources are skipped.
- Record sets on ISP or regional resolution lines are kept separately; weighted duplicates on the default line are merged into one record set.
- Changes are accepted asynchronously and can show as pending for a few seconds.
