DNS Lookup Tool
Query a domain's A, AAAA, MX, TXT, NS, CNAME, SOA, and CAA records.
About this tool
Query a domain's public DNS records directly from your browser — pick a record type (A, AAAA, MX, TXT, NS, CNAME, SOA, or CAA) and see exactly what's published for that domain. Useful for verifying DNS propagation, checking mail server setup, or debugging a misconfigured record.
Lookups run through Cloudflare's public DNS-over-HTTPS resolver (cloudflare-dns.com) directly from your browser — nothing is proxied through this site's own servers.
Frequently asked questions
- Why does this use Cloudflare's resolver instead of the domain's own authoritative servers?
- Browsers can't make raw DNS queries — only HTTP requests. DNS-over-HTTPS (DoH) is a standard way to run a DNS query over HTTPS, and Cloudflare's public resolver supports it with the open CORS access this tool needs. The results reflect what Cloudflare's resolver has cached or fetched, which matches what most of the internet sees.
- Why don't I see any records?
- Either the domain doesn't have that record type configured, or the domain doesn't exist at all — the result area will say which. Note that DNS changes can take time to propagate; a record you just created might not show up everywhere immediately.
- What's a TTL?
- Time To Live — the number of seconds a DNS resolver is allowed to cache a record before re-querying for a fresh copy. Lower values mean changes propagate faster but increase load on the authoritative servers.
- Is my query private?
- The domain you look up is sent to Cloudflare's public DNS resolver over HTTPS, the same as any DNS query your browser or OS already makes when you visit a site. Nothing is sent to or stored by this site.
