Good to know

  • Every change replaces the domain's full DNS entry list in one request; entries outside the plan are sent back unchanged.
  • The API allows 1000 requests per 15 minutes per account, and access tokens expire after at most one month.
  • TXT values with double quotes, backslashes, backticks or trailing spaces are rejected or altered by TransIP.
