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

The domain we’ll be using is ifwtests.site

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:

Login to the GoDaddy Developer Portal and click API Keys.

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

Create your API Key, give it a name, select Production, and click Next.

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