OVH

Configuration

Example

{
  "settings": [
    {
      "provider": "ovh",
      "domain": "domain.com",
      "username": "username",
      "password": "password",
      "ip_version": "ipv4",
      "ipv6_suffix": ""
    }
  ]
}

Compulsory parameters

• "domain" is the domain to update. It can be example.com (root domain) or sub.example.com (subdomain of example.com).

Using DynHost

• "username"
• "password"

OR Using ZoneDNS

• "api_endpoint" default value is "ovh-eu"
• "app_key" which you can create at eu.api.ovh.com/createApp
• "app_secret"
• "consumer_key" which you can get at www.ovh.com/auth/api/createToken

The ZoneDNS implementation allows you to update any record name including *.yourdomain.tld

Optional parameters

• "ip_version" can be ipv4 (A records), or ipv6 (AAAA records) or ipv4 or ipv6 (update one of the two, depending on the public ip found). It defaults to ipv4 or ipv6.
• "ipv6_suffix" is the IPv6 interface identifier suffix to use. It can be for example 0:0:0:0:72ad:8fbb:a54e:bedd/64. If left empty, it defaults to no suffix and the raw public IPv6 address obtained is used in the record updating.
• "mode" select between two modes, OVH's dynamic hosting service ("dynamic") or OVH's API ("api"). Default is "dynamic"
