DNS Records Scraper

DNS Records Scraper pulls structured data from Google Public DNS (DNS-over-HTTPS) and returns it as a clean dataset you can export as JSON, CSV or Excel. It queries Google's public DNS-over-HTTPS resolver for a domain and record type, returning one row per DNS record with the record name, numeric type, TTL and record data.

No API key, no login. Click Start and it works with the prefilled input.

What does DNS Records Scraper do?

It queries Google Public DNS (DNS-over-HTTPS) and returns one row per record, with only the fields that matter. Runs on the Apify platform, so you get an API endpoint, scheduling, monitoring and integrations (Zapier, Make, Google Sheets, webhooks) without maintaining any infrastructure.

Why use it?

• Google Public DNS (DNS-over-HTTPS) data without the plumbing: no proxy setup, no pagination code, no scraping maintenance.
• Schedule it to monitor changes daily or weekly and trigger alerts on new records.
• Feed it straight into a spreadsheet, database, or an AI agent via the Apify API or MCP server.
• Runs in seconds and returns a typed dataset that is ready for analysis.

How to use it

1. Click Try for free / Start.
2. Leave the default input to see a sample run, or type your own values (see Input below).
3. Press Start and wait a few seconds.
4. Open the Output tab and download as JSON, CSV, Excel or HTML.

  "query": "example.com",
  "recordType": "A",
  "maxResults": 5
}

One item per record. Sample:

{
  "record_name": "example.com.",
  "record_type": "1",
  "ttl": "131",
  "data": "172.66.147.243"
}

You can download the dataset in various formats such as JSON, HTML, CSV, or Excel.

Data fields

Field	Type	Meaning
record_name	string	Record Name
record_type	integer	Type Code

How much does it cost to run?

This Actor uses pay-per-event pricing: you pay per result item pushed to the dataset, and nothing for an empty run. Each run is a few seconds of compute, so typical costs are fractions of a cent per run, and the Apify free tier covers plenty of testing.

Tips and advanced options

• Raise maxResults for a bigger pull; the Actor pages through the source for you.
• Schedule it (e.g. every morning) and combine with a webhook to get only the new records.
• Add the Actor to an AI agent through the Apify MCP server for natural-language queries.

FAQ, disclaimers and support

• Is this legal? It uses publicly available data from Google Public DNS (DNS-over-HTTPS). You are responsible for how you use the data and for complying with the source's terms.
• It returned nothing? Check the domain spelling and the record type - some domains simply have no records of the type you selected.
• Something broken? Open an issue on the Actor's Issues tab. Data sources change and get fixed quickly.
• Need a custom variant (extra fields, a different source, a scheduled report)? Get in touch through the Issues tab.
