Exporting existing DNSRecordSet to YAML

[denizdogan]

Is there any way to export an existing DNS record set using the config-connector CLI? I can't find the resource name format in this link.

Even with bulk-export, I just get the corresponding DNSManagedZone, no DNSRecordSet.

I am able to get some YAML output by using gcloud as such:

$ gcloud dns record-sets export outputfile -z=zone-name --project my-project

This generates output like this:

---
kind: dns#resourceRecordSet
name: my.domain.
rrdatas:
- ...
ttl: 21600
type: NS
---
kind: dns#resourceRecordSet
name: my.domain.
rrdatas:
- ...
ttl: 21600
type: SOA
---
...etc...

I could manually translate this into DNSRecordSet resources pretty easily, but it would still be good to know if there's something I'm missing in config-connector?

Hi @denizdogan , thank you for reporting the issue. The config-connector tool is built on top of CAI (Cloud Asset Inventory), so if the resource is not supported by CAI, then it is not supported by config-connector tool. I think the link you mentioned is a proper reference to check CAI-supported resources, and according to it the DNS record set cannot be exported.

That being said, I noticed that the result of config-connector print-resources showed that DNSRecordSet is supported by bulk-export. Sorry for the confusion. I'll bring the bug back to the team. Will post updates when we have more information.

Currently, the workaround is to manually translate the DNS record sets you own into DNSResourceSet CRs.

Any progress on getting export support for DNS Record Sets?
