Search for CNAME record based on hostname

[#1]

Hi All

I got this below curl command to fetch CNAME record 

curl -k -u admin:infoblox -X GET "https://grid-master/wapi/v2.11/record:cname?_return_as_object=1"

but I need to fetch record based on hostname like how we search in webclient.

I need to perform delete operation for the record for which I need to fetch only the sepcific record from infoblox.

Please let me know on this.

Hi Snehasish,

You can fetch the records as per the host name by using search based on the name. You can append "?name~=<your host>" to your query to filter the results.

Below is an sample curl command

curl -k -u admin:infoblox -X GET "https://grid-master/wapi/v2.11/record:cname?name~=host.com&_return_as_object=1"

Hi @shukran

Thank for your response.

I tried using the way you told but not getting any response from postman

https://ddi.sgt.saint-gobain.net/wapi/v2.10.5/record:cname?name~=TEST5AP.zb.net&_return_as_object=1

below is the details

{  
    
    "canonical":"TEST5AP.zb.net",
    "name":"TEST5AP.dtc1.cf.net"
 
}

Let me know what is wrong

Hi

I got the issue. the name is case-sensative. in weblient the name is in all small letters. that's the reason it was not able to find it.

Is there any way to handle that?

Hi

I think you should try searching by canonical insted.

For case insensitive search you can use  ":" in the query like "?canonical:~=<your host>"

Sample curl

curl -k -u admin:infoblox -X GET "https://grid-master/wapi/v2.11/record:cname?canonical:~=host.com&_return_as_object=1"
