ListResourceRecordSets - Amazon Route 53

ListResourceRecordSets

Lists the resource record sets in a specified hosted zone.

ListResourceRecordSets returns up to 300 resource record sets at a time in ASCII order, beginning at a position specified by the name and type elements.

Sort order

ListResourceRecordSets sorts results first by DNS name with the labels reversed, for example:

com.example.www.

Note the trailing dot, which can change the sort order when the record name contains characters that appear before . (decimal 46) in the ASCII table. These characters include the following: ! " # $ % & ' ( ) * + , -

When multiple records have the same DNS name, ListResourceRecordSets sorts results by the record type.

Specifying where to start listing records

You can use the name and type elements to specify the resource record set that the list begins with:

If you do not specify Name or Type

The results begin with the first resource record set that the hosted zone contains.

If you specify Name but not Type

The results begin with the first resource record set in the list whose name is greater than or equal to Name.

If you specify Type but not Name

Amazon Route 53 returns the InvalidInput error.

If you specify both Name and Type

The results begin with the first resource record set in the list whose name is greater than or equal to Name, and whose type is greater than or equal to Type.

Resource record sets that are PENDING

This action returns the most current version of the records. This includes records that are PENDING, and that are not yet available on all Route 53 DNS servers.

Changing resource record sets

To ensure that you get an accurate listing of the resource record sets for a hosted zone at a point in time, do not submit a ChangeResourceRecordSets request while you're paging through the results of a ListResourceRecordSets request. If you do, some pages may display results without the latest changes while other pages display results with the latest changes.

Displaying the next page of results

If a ListResourceRecordSets command returns more than one page of results, the value of IsTruncated is true. To display the next page of results, get the values of NextRecordName, NextRecordType, and NextRecordIdentifier (if any) from the response. Then submit another ListResourceRecordSets request, and specify those values for StartRecordName, StartRecordType, and StartRecordIdentifier.

Request Syntax

GET /2013-04-01/hostedzone/Id/rrset?identifier=StartRecordIdentifier&maxitems=MaxItems&name=StartRecordName&type=StartRecordType HTTP/1.1

URI Request Parameters

The request uses the following URI parameters.

Id

The ID of the hosted zone that contains the resource record sets that you want to list.

Length Constraints: Maximum length of 32.

Required: Yes

identifier

Resource record sets that have a routing policy other than simple: If results were truncated for a given DNS name and type, specify the value of NextRecordIdentifier from the previous response to get the next resource record set that has the current DNS name and type.

Length Constraints: Minimum length of 1. Maximum length of 128.

maxitems

(Optional) The maximum number of resource records sets to include in the response body for this request. If the response includes more than maxitems resource record sets, the value of the IsTruncated element in the response is true, and the values of the NextRecordName and NextRecordType elements in the response identify the first resource record set in the next group of maxitems resource record sets.

name

The first name in the lexicographic ordering of resource record sets that you want to list. If the specified record name doesn't exist, the results begin with the first resource record set that has a name greater than the value of name.

Length Constraints: Maximum length of 1024.

type

The type of resource record set to begin the record listing from.

Valid values for basic resource record sets: A | AAAA | CAA | CNAME | MX | NAPTR | NS | PTR | SOA | SPF | SRV | TXT

Values for weighted, latency, geolocation, and failover resource record sets: A | AAAA | CAA | CNAME | MX | NAPTR | PTR | SPF | SRV | TXT

Values for alias resource record sets:

  • API Gateway custom regional API or edge-optimized API: A

  • CloudFront distribution: A or AAAA

  • Elastic Beanstalk environment that has a regionalized subdomain: A

  • Elastic Load Balancing load balancer: A | AAAA

  • S3 bucket: A

  • VPC interface VPC endpoint: A

  • Another resource record set in this hosted zone: The type of the resource record set that the alias references.

Constraint: Specifying type without specifying name returns an InvalidInput error.

Valid Values: SOA | A | TXT | NS | CNAME | MX | NAPTR | PTR | SRV | SPF | AAAA | CAA | DS | TLSA | SSHFP | SVCB | HTTPS

Request Body

The request does not have a request body.

Response Elements

If the action is successful, the service sends back an HTTP 200 response.

The following data is returned in XML format by the service.

ListResourceRecordSetsResponse

Root level tag for the ListResourceRecordSetsResponse parameters.

Required: Yes

IsTruncated

A flag that indicates whether more resource record sets remain to be listed. If your results were truncated, you can make a follow-up pagination request by using the NextRecordName element.

Type: Boolean

MaxItems

The maximum number of records you requested.

Type: String

NextRecordIdentifier

Resource record sets that have a routing policy other than simple: If results were truncated for a given DNS name and type, the value of SetIdentifier for the next resource record set that has the current DNS name and type.

For information about routing policies, see Choosing a Routing Policy in the Amazon Route 53 Developer Guide.

Type: String

Length Constraints: Minimum length of 1. Maximum length of 128.

NextRecordName

If the results were truncated, the name of the next record in the list.
