About

Google Public DNS offers a web-friendly DNS API that answers plain GET requests with JSON. No binary DNS knowledge required. It supports every record type (A, MX, TXT, and more) and can validate DNSSEC signatures for you, which is handy for security checks. Like Cloudflare's version, it's free, needs no key, and works from any browser or script.

Details

Setup

  1. No signup needed. Just call the endpoint.
  2. Request https://dns.google/resolve?name=DOMAIN&type=RECORDTYPE in a browser or script.
  3. Add '&cd=1&do=1' if you want DNSSEC validation details in the response.
  4. Parse the 'Answer' array; 'Status: 3' means the domain doesn't exist.
