delete-domain-entry¶

Description¶

Deletes a specific domain entry.

The delete domain entry operation supports tag-based access control via resource tags applied to the resource identified by domain name . For more information, see the Amazon Lightsail Developer Guide .

Synopsis¶

  delete-domain-entry
--domain-name <value>
--domain-entry <value>
[--cli-input-json | --cli-input-yaml]
[--generate-cli-skeleton <value>]

Options¶

--domain-name (string)

The name of the domain entry to delete.

--domain-entry (structure)

An array of key-value pairs containing information about your domain entries.

id -> (string)

The ID of the domain recordset entry.

name -> (string)

The name of the domain.

target -> (string)

The target IP address (e.g., 192.0.2.0 ), or AWS name server (e.g., ns-111.awsdns-22.com. ).

For Lightsail load balancers, the value looks like ab1234c56789c6b86aba6fb203d443bc-123456789.us-east-2.elb.amazonaws.com . For Lightsail distributions, the value looks like exampled1182ne.cloudfront.net . For Lightsail container services, the value looks like container-service-1.example23scljs.us-west-2.cs.amazonlightsail.com . Be sure to also set isAlias to true when setting up an A record for a Lightsail load balancer, distribution, or container service.

isAlias -> (boolean)

When true , specifies whether the domain entry is an alias used by the Lightsail load balancer. You can include an alias (A type) record in your request, which points to a load balancer DNS name and routes traffic to your load balancer.

type -> (string)

The type of domain entry, such as address for IPv4 (A), address for IPv6 (AAAA), canonical name (CNAME), mail exchanger (MX), name server (NS), start of authority (SOA), service locator (SRV), or text (TXT).

The following domain entry types can be used:

A

AAAA

CNAME

MX

NS

SOA

SRV

TXT

options -> (map)

(Deprecated) The options for the domain entry.

Note

In releases prior to November 29, 2017, this parameter was not included in the API response. It is now deprecated.

key -> (string)

value -> (string)

Shorthand Syntax:

id=string,name=string,target=string,isAlias=boolean,type=string,options={KeyName1=string,KeyName2=string}

JSON Syntax:

{
  "id": "string",
  "name": "string",
  "target": "string",
  "isAlias": true|false,
  "type": "string",
  "options": {"string": "string"
    ...}
}

--cli-input-json | --cli-input-yaml (string) Reads arguments from the JSON string provided. The JSON string follows the format provided by --generate-cli-skeleton. If other arguments are provided on the command line, those values will override the JSON-provided values. It is not possible to pass arbitrary binary values using a JSON-provided value as the string will be taken literally. This may not be specified along with --cli-input-yaml.

--generate-cli-skeleton (string) Prints a JSON skeleton to standard output without sending an API request. If provided with no value or the value input, prints a sample input JSON that can be used as an argument for --cli-input-json. Similarly, if provided yaml-input it will print a sample input YAML that can be used with --cli-input-yaml. If provided with the value output, it validates the command inputs and returns a sample output JSON for that command. The generated JSON skeleton is not stable between versions of the AWS CLI and there are no backwards compatibility guarantees in the JSON skeleton generated.

See ‘aws help’ for descriptions of global parameters.

Examples¶

Note

To use the following examples, you must have the AWS CLI installed and configured. See the Getting started guide in the AWS CLI User Guide for more information.

Unless otherwise stated, all examples have unix-like quotation rules. These examples will need to be adapted to your terminal’s quoting rules. See Using quotation marks with strings in the AWS CLI User Guide .

To delete a domain entry (DNS record)

The following delete-domain-entry example deletes the specified domain entry from an existing domain.

Note: Lightsail’s domain-related API operations are available in only the us-east-1 Region. If your CLI profile is configured to use a different Region, you must include the --region us-east-1 parameter or the command fails.

aws lightsail delete-domain-entry \
    --region us-east-1 \
    --domain-name example.com \
    --domain-entry name=123.example.com,target=192.0.2.0,type=A

Output:

{
    "operation": {
        "id": "06eacd01-d785-420e-8daa-823150c7dca1",
        "resourceName": "example.com ",
        "resourceType": "Domain",
        "createdAt": 1569874157.005,
        "location": {
            "availabilityZone": "all",
            "regionName": "global"
        },
        "isTerminal": true,
        "operationType": "DeleteDomainEntry",
        "status": "Succeeded",
        "statusChangedAt": 1569874157.005
    }
}
