Azure DNS Management client library for .NET

This package follows the new Azure SDK guidelines which provide a number of core capabilities that are shared amongst all Azure SDKs, including the intuitive Azure Identity library, an HTTP Pipeline with custom policies, error-handling, distributed tracing, and much more.

Getting started

Install the package

Install the Azure DNS management library for .NET with NuGet:

dotnet add package Azure.ResourceManager.Dns --prerelease

Prerequisites

Set up a way to authenticate to Azure with Azure Identity.

Some options are:

• Through the Azure CLI Login.
• Via Visual Studio.
• Setting Environment Variables.

More information and different authentication approaches using Azure Identity can be found in this document.

Authenticate the Client

The default option to create an authenticated client is to use DefaultAzureCredential. Since all management APIs go through the same endpoint, in order to interact with resources, only one top-level ArmClient has to be created.

To authenticate to Azure and create an ArmClient, do the following:

Additional documentation for the Azure.Identity.DefaultAzureCredential class can be found in this document.

Examples

Create a Dns zone

ArmClient armClient = new ArmClient(new DefaultAzureCredential());
SubscriptionResource subscription = await armClient.GetDefaultSubscriptionAsync();
// first we need to get the resource group
string rgName = "myRgName";
ResourceGroupResource resourceGroup = await subscription.GetResourceGroups().GetAsync(rgName);
// Now we get the DnsZone collection from the resource group
DnsZoneCollection dnsZoneCollection = resourceGroup.GetDnsZones();
// Use the same location as the resource group
string dnsZoneName = "sample.com";
DnsZoneData data = new DnsZoneData("Global")
{
};
ArmOperation<DnsZoneResource> lro = await dnsZoneCollection.CreateOrUpdateAsync(WaitUntil.Completed, dnsZoneName, data);
DnsZoneResource dnsZone = lro.Value;

Get all Dns zones in a resource group

ArmClient armClient = new ArmClient(new DefaultAzureCredential());
SubscriptionResource subscription = await armClient.GetDefaultSubscriptionAsync();
// first we need to get the resource group
string rgName = "myRgName";
ResourceGroupResource resourceGroup = await subscription.GetResourceGroups().GetAsync(rgName);
// Now we get the DnsZone collection from the resource group
DnsZoneCollection dnsZoneCollection = resourceGroup.GetDnsZones();
// With ListAsync(), we can get a list of the DnsZones
AsyncPageable<DnsZoneResource>  response = dnsZoneCollection.GetAllAsync();
await foreach (DnsZoneResource dnsZone in response)
{
    Console.WriteLine(dnsZone.Data.Name);
}

Delete a Dns zone

ArmClient armClient = new ArmClient(new DefaultAzureCredential());
SubscriptionResource subscription = await armClient.GetDefaultSubscriptionAsync();
// first we need to get the resource group
string rgName = "myRgName";
ResourceGroupResource resourceGroup = await subscription.GetResourceGroups().GetAsync(rgName);
// Now we get the DnsZone collection from the resource group
DnsZoneCollection dnsZoneCollection = resourceGroup.GetDnsZones();
string dnsZoneName = "sample.com";
DnsZoneResource dnsZone =await dnsZoneCollection.GetAsync(dnsZoneName);
await dnsZone.DeleteAsync(WaitUntil.Completed);

Troubleshooting

• If you find a bug or have a suggestion, file an issue via GitHub issues and make sure you add the "Preview" label to the issue.
• If you need help, check previous questions or ask new ones on StackOverflow using azure and .NET tags.
• If having trouble with authentication, go to DefaultAzureCredential documentation
