DigitalOcean Integration Coming Q4 2025

Prerequisites

• A DigitalOcean account with domains
• API token with read access to:
  • Domains
  • Domain records

Creating an API Token

1. Log in to DigitalOcean

   Visit the DigitalOcean API page and log in to your account.

2. Generate new token

   Click "Generate New Token" and configure:

   • Give it a descriptive name (e.g., "DNS Check Integration")
   • Select "Read" scope
   • Optionally set an expiration date
   
3. Save the token

   After generating the token, make sure to copy and save it somewhere safe - you won't be able to see it again!

Connecting to DNS Check

1. Add DigitalOcean integration

   In DNS Check, go to Settings > Integrations and click "Add DigitalOcean".

2. Enter API token

   Paste your DigitalOcean API token.

3. Select domains

   Choose which domains you want to monitor. DNS Check will automatically detect all available domains in your account.

Monitoring DNS Records

Once connected, DNS Check will:

• Automatically detect all DNS records for your selected domains
• Monitor for any changes to these records
• Alert you when changes are detected
• Keep a history of all changes for future reference

Troubleshooting

Common Issues

• "Unable to list domains"

  This usually means the API token doesn't have the correct read permissions. Make sure you've selected the "Read" scope when creating the token.

• "Unable to fetch DNS records"

  Verify that the API token has read access and that the domains you're trying to monitor exist in your account.

• "Invalid token"

  Double-check that you've entered the correct API token and that it hasn't expired.
