Good to know

  • Loopia's API can't read the domain's delegation or DNSSEC state, so we check those through public DNS.
  • LoopiaAPI allows 60 calls per minute and needs one call per record change plus one per host name to read, so large zones take several minutes.
  • Apex NS records are managed by Loopia and are not changed; ALIAS, PTR and DS records are not available.
  • TTLs below 300 seconds are served as 300, and TXT values longer than 450 characters are rejected.
