Change IP for DNS A Records

What is the name of the domain?


What is the issue you’re encountering

I want to change the IP for every A Record in my Account

What are the steps to reproduce the issue?

I have several Domains in my Account. So I have a great number of DNS A Records for the Domians. My Issue is, that in a few days, I will upgrade one Server. And so the IP Address of this server will change. With my regular Domain Registrar, I have a feature, where I can simply do a search and replace action for my DNS entries. So if a IP changes, I can use this feature and upgrade every single affected A record to the new one.

Is there a feature with Cloudflare for the same? Because I wasn’t able to find anything. Because even if I’m in my Cloudflare Dashboard and do a “Search in … account” for the IP, I get no results.

There’s no such feature in the dashboard. You can script something up using the Cloudflare API to search and then change the records for you…

Or you can use my tool here to get a list of all the DNS records in your accountso at least you can find any records you need to change…
