match: optional "any" or "all"

Whether to match all search requirements or at least one (any). If set to all, acts like a logical AND between filters. If set to any, acts like a logical OR instead. Note that the interaction between tag filters is controlled by the tag-match parameter instead.

One of the following:

"any"

search: optional string

Allows searching in multiple properties of a DNS record simultaneously. This parameter is intended for human users, not automation. Its exact behavior is intentionally left unspecified and is subject to change in the future. This parameter works independently of the match setting. For automated searches, please use the other available parameters.

shadowed_by_name: optional string

Filters to records at or below the given NS delegation name, excluding the NS records that form the delegation itself. The value must be a subdomain of the zone; the zone apex is not accepted. Requires include_shadow_metadata=true. See Shadowed records.

shadowing_name: optional string

Returns NS records that shadow the given name, searching at the name itself and each of its ancestor names within the zone, excluding the zone apex. The value must be a subdomain of the zone; the zone apex is not accepted. See Shadowed records.

absent: optional string

Name of a tag which must not be present on the DNS record. Tag filters are case-insensitive.

tag_match: optional "any" or "all"

Whether to match all tag search requirements or at least one (any). If set to all, acts like a logical AND between tag filters. If set to any, acts like a logical OR instead. Note that the regular match parameter is still used to combine the resulting condition with other filters that aren’t related to tags.

One of the following:

"any"

"all"
