Set up your GoDaddy Account

Before you get started with the GoDaddy Adapter you’ll need to login to your GoDaddy account and choose a test domain you want IguanaX to manage:

Login to your GoDaddy Account and choose a domain you want to manage

Login to GoDaddy and access your domains at Account > My Products. Choose a domain and click DNS.

The domain we’ll be using is ifwtests.site

View your DNS Records table and make sure you have an A and CNAME Record configured

This will bring us to the DNS Management page where we can access our DNS records table.

A record (Address) is a type of DNS record used to map a domain or subdomain to an IPv4 address. It contains the information needed to direct your request to the correct server.

CNAME record (Canonical Name) is used to alias one domain name to another.

Now lets get ready to interact with the GoDaddy API:

Go to the developer portal and get or generate an OTE API Access Key

Login to the GoDaddy Developer Portal and click API Keys.

If you don’t have an API Key, generate one.

Create an OTE API Key if you do not have one

Create your OTE API Key, give it a name, and click next.

Copy the OTE API Key and Secret values somewhere safe!

Copy the Key and Secret values. We’ll need these to authenticate with the GoDaddy API.
