Delete DNS record
Deletes one supported record from the active primary zone. Send no request body. A token bound to the domain Space and an Idempotency-Key are required. Retry the same key and payload to retrieve a completed result for 24 hours. An uncertain registrar outcome pauses Portal and Developer API writes for the domain until reviewed.
/api/v1/domains/{domain}/records/{recordId}Workspace automation for approved Dashio products. Each token is scoped to one Space and independently granted operations. Requests spend shared minute credits, and selected operation groups also share hourly quotas.
Required token scope is dns:records:write. Scopes are independent.
This operation uses 8 credits from a shared budget of 60 credits per token and 300 per Space each UTC minute. The provider group shares 40 requests per token and 100 per Space each UTC hour.
Run these examples on a trusted server with DASHIO_API_TOKEN configured. Use a private terminal when inspecting response data. Examples send one request with a bounded timeout and do not retry automatically.
Set DASHIO_IDEMPOTENCY_KEY to the persisted key for this logical write. Reuse it only for an identical retry.
