Hi
I could be nice to have a box to ad a note to the dns records for internal use only so there is:
Type
Name
Value
TTL
Status
Notes
I can definitely see where this feature would be useful. I’ve passed this feedback on to the team working on the next iteration of the DNS app. From what they’ve told me, you’re not the only person to ask for a notes or comments field, and there’s a good chance we’ll be able to implement this at some point in the future.
Thanks for taking the time to provide us with this feedback!

Hello, I have a suggestion: a button/box or something to allow short personal comments in each DNS record.
In Bind we can do things like:
entry 7200 IN A 123.234.123.234 ;this is a comment
We miss this after moved to Cloudflare. In big zones, comments help to keep things under control.

Agree with you, it would be great to be able to add a simple internal text note to each DNS record (like a purpose of the record, information about who is responsible for this subdomain etc.)

I agree, this would be huge for me. I didn’t realize how bad I needed it until today when one of our vendors asked me to enter some SendGrid entries so their service can send email on our behalf. We already had some entries, but I can’t tell which vendor they are for so I can verify it’s one we still use. We also have multiple vendors in our SPF TXT record and it would be nice to update the comment any time I add or remove an entry to that TXT record just to help remind myself if I don’t look at it again for a year.

Can you give an indication on when this will be implemented? Since it has been over a year now.

Any updates? This feature is DESPERATELY needed! I have dozens of DNS records from many different vendors and platforms and it’s become impossible to keep track of the purpose of all these records.

I came here to ask for this feature. Glad to see I’m not the only one who needs it.
Its hard to keep track of the DNS entries without having a comments section.
For example, i have an entry with:
name: _9bf0e5952bd35fbcdfc0f48e71800a21
target: _c74ed7755f9a6ec1d41cafb77da4b444.nhqijqilxf.acm-validations.aws
I guess it has to do with certain AWS validation, but what exactly? I can’t remember. I don’t know if its still necessary.
If I could leave comments it would have solved the problem.

Amazing that there are so many DNS providers out there and I haven’t found one that offers this.
I have 30 or 40 records to manage, most I know but there are a heap that are auth keys and lookup checks from old products etc I have no idea what they are. Notes would help a whole bunch.

Please add this; it can’t be very difficult to add either… This would be extremely helpful as the amount of DNS records grow. This would be especially useful for TXT records.
I’m shocked that this is not already a feature of Cloudflare… It seems like it should be so essential!

I also would like to see this feature implemented. We double our work keeping records in a spreadsheet with notes.

I spoke with some product managers, and this is definitely on their To Do list. They’re aware of this product request thread and will hopefully add some info as soon as they can commit to a release.

+1 on this, it’d be a massive help
+1 here but also for Page Rules. Right now we are keeping notes for both in Notion but it’s always difficult to keep documentation updated the further removed it is from the source.

This seems like such a simple request to allocate a field for DNS notes/comments. This would be great addition to a great product. There are many random DNS entries of random text that are hard to track between teams. Is there any chance this feature is on the roadmap? If so is there an ETA? Thanks!
