Credentials

Environment Variable Name Description
DNSIMPLE_OAUTH_TOKEN OAuth token

The environment variable names can be suffixed by _FILE to reference a file instead of a value. More information [here]({{< ref "dns#configuration-and-credentials" >}}).

Additional Configuration

Environment Variable Name Description
DNSIMPLE_BASE_URL API endpoint URL
DNSIMPLE_POLLING_INTERVAL Time between DNS propagation check
DNSIMPLE_PROPAGATION_TIMEOUT Maximum waiting time for DNS propagation
DNSIMPLE_TTL The TTL of the TXT record used for the DNS challenge

The environment variable names can be suffixed by _FILE to reference a file instead of a value. More information [here]({{< ref "dns#configuration-and-credentials" >}}).

Description

DNSIMPLE_BASE_URL is optional and must be set to production (https://api.dnsimple.com). if DNSIMPLE_BASE_URL is not defined or empty, the production URL is used by default.

While you can manage DNS records in the DNSimple Sandbox environment, DNS records will not resolve, and you will not be able to satisfy the ACME DNS challenge.

To authenticate you need to provide a valid API token. HTTP Basic Authentication is intentionally not supported.

API tokens

You can generate a new API token from your account page. Only Account API tokens are supported, if you try to use a User API token you will receive an error message.
