I am currently developping a script to create PTR entries for all the A records we imported from our Windows domains. These domains remain authoritative and the corresponding zones are created in our Infoblox DNS as Secondary Authoritatives.
I adapted the documentation examples to fit my needs and fired queries like:
curl -k -u user:pass -X GET "https://grid-manager/wapi/v2.6.1/allrecords?_max_results=10&_return_fields=address,comment,creator,ddns_principal,ddns_protected,disable,dtc_obscured,name,reclaimable,record,ttl,type,view&view=default&zone=test.local"
I get a nice JSON response but only part of the fields I requested are available. More importantly, the field I'm the most interested in, the address, is missing !
Since I'm only interested in A records, I tried something else:
curl -k -u user:pass -X GET "https://grid-manager/wapi/v2.6.1/record:a?_return_fields=aws_rte53_record_info,cloud_info,comment,creation_time,creator,ddns_principal,ddns_protected,disable,discovered_data,dns_name,extattrs,forbid_reclamation,ipv4addr,last_queried,ms_ad_user_data,name,reclaimable,shared_record_group,ttl,use_ttl,view,zone&zone=test.local"
But the result is empty !
I checked with the same user using the web interface and I can see all the entries, IP addresses included. We temporarily gave the user all the rights but the result was just the same.
I also tried the "request" method, passing the same arguments in JSON but obviously, the result is just the same.
My question is hence: is it normal that I can get the IP addresses of zones for which the Infoblox DNS is secondary authoritative through the web interface but not through the API ? Is there some work around ?
