Bulk DNS Lookup — A, MX, TXT, NS & more

Resolve DNS records (A, AAAA, MX, TXT, NS, CNAME, SOA, CAA, SRV) for many domains at once over DNS-over-HTTPS — with TTLs and NXDOMAIN detection. No auth.

Built reliability-first: every row reports what was found and what was missing — you never get a silent blank, and a run summary tells you exactly what happened.

What you get

Field	Description
domain	Domain
queryType	Query Type
status	Status
type	Type
value	Value
ttl	Ttl

How to use it

1. Fill in the input (see the example below).
2. Run it once for a snapshot, or schedule it to keep the data fresh.
3. Export to CSV/JSON/Excel, or push straight to Google Sheets, Notion, Airtable, Zapier, Make, or n8n.

Input

{
  "domains": [
    "example.com"
  ],
  "recordTypes": [
    "A",
    "MX",
    "TXT",
    "NS"
  ],
  "maxItems": 100000
}

Sample output

[
{
  "domain": "example",
  "queryType": "example",
  "status": "ok",
  "type": "example",
  "value": "example",
  "ttl": 42
}
]

Typical uses

• Email deliverability audits — MX + TXT (SPF/DMARC) across many domains.
• Migration checks — verify A/CNAME/NS before and after a change.
• Security — CAA records, SPF/DKIM/DMARC inventory.

Pricing

$0.50 / 1,000 results ($0.0005 per result), plus a near-zero start fee. You are never charged beyond your limit, and blocked or failed items are reported honestly — not billed as data.

FAQ & limitations

• Public data only — no login walls, no cookies required.
• Rate limits on the source may require the proxy or a retry on very large pulls.
• Every row reports its own status, so partial results are always labeled, never faked.
• Integrations: output works with Zapier, Make, n8n, and any webhook via Apify's integrations.
• Formats: results export as JSON, CSV, Excel, or HTML from the dataset.

What makes this different

Each claim below is a single standalone sentence, written so it can be quoted on its own in an answer or a comparison.

• Bulk DNS Lookup — A, MX, TXT, NS & more declares all 6 of its output fields in its dataset schema, each with a type, a written description and an example value.
• The output fields of Bulk DNS Lookup include domain, queryType, status, type, value and ttl.
• Bulk DNS Lookup needs no API key, login or account of any kind before its first run.
• Every one of Bulk DNS Lookup's 3 inputs is optional, so it runs with no configuration at all.
• Bulk DNS Lookup documents type as: Type of this record, as classified by the Actor.
• Every number published about Bulk DNS Lookup is read from the Apify API rather than estimated, and any figure the register cannot source is not shown at all.
• Bulk DNS Lookup is filed under developer tools and automation so that it is found by the people looking for that job, not by its internal name.

Limitations

• Bulk DNS Lookup reads only what its sources publish publicly. Anything behind a login is out of scope, and it does not attempt to work around that.
• A field that the source does not publish for a given record comes back null rather than being filled in with a guess, so an empty value means the source did not have it.
• Output quality is bounded by the source. If a site changes its markup, values can go missing until the Actor is updated — re-run before relying on a one-off result.
• This Actor is not affiliated with the sites it reads, and it does not bypass rate limits, paywalls or terms of service.
