DNS in Google Sheets
Create a function
1.1.1.1 works directly inside Google Sheets. To get started, create a Google Function with the following code:
function NSLookup(type, domain) {if (typeof type == 'undefined') {throw new Error('Missing parameter 1 dns type');}if (typeof domain == 'undefined') {throw new Error('Missing parameter 2 domain name');}type = type.toUpperCase();var url = 'https://cloudflare-dns.com/dns-query?name=' + encodeURIComponent(domain) + '&type=' + encodeURIComponent(type);var options = {muteHttpExceptions: true,headers: {accept: "application/dns-json"}};var result = UrlFetchApp.fetch(url, options);var rc = result.getResponseCode();var resultText = result.getContentText();if (rc !== 200) {throw new Error(rc);}var errors = [{ name: "NoError", description: "No Error"}, // 0{ name: "FormErr", description: "Format Error"}, // 1{ name: "ServFail", description: "Server Failure"}, // 2{ name: "NXDomain", description: "Non-Existent Domain"}, // 3{ name: "NotImp", description: "Not Implemented"}, // 4{ name: "Refused", description: "Query Refused"}, // 5{ name: "YXDomain", description: "Name Exists when it should not"}, // 6{ name: "YXRRSet", description: "RR Set Exists when it should not"}, // 7{ name: "NXRRSet", description: "RR Set that should exist does not"}, // 8{ name: "NotAuth", description: "Not Authorized"} // 9];var response = JSON.parse(resultText);if (response.Status !== 0) {return errors[response.Status].name;}var outputData = [];for (var i in response.Answer) {outputData.push(response.Answer[i].data);}var outputString = outputData.join(',');return outputString;}
Using 1.1.1.1
When you feed the function NSLookup
a record type and a domain, you will get a DNS record value in the cell you called NSLookup
.Supported DNS record types
A
AAAA
CAA
CNAME
DS
DNSKEY
MX
NS
NSEC
NSEC3
RRSIG
SOA
TXT
For example, typing:
NSLookup(B1, B2)
Or - depending on your regional settings - you may have to use this formula:
NSLookup(B1; B2)
Returns
198.41.214.162, 198.41.215.162
