Good to know
- OVHcloud reads each record with a separate API call, so large zones take a while to load.
- Changes are published when the zone is refreshed, which we trigger after applying; it can take a few minutes.
- TXT values can't contain double quotes or backslashes, and ALIAS records aren't supported.
