API Zone Creation: Programmatic DNS Monitoring Setup

ZoneWatcher now supports API-driven zone creation. Automate your entire monitoring setup.

What You Can Do

Create zones programmatically via the ZoneWatcher API. Connect zones to your existing Public DNS providers without manual steps. Integrate ZoneWatcher directly into your infrastructure provisioning workflows.

When you spin up new client, their domains can automatically be setup in ZoneWatcher for monitoring.

The Workflow

Your provisioning tool creates infrastructure, including DNS zones. It simultaneously calls the ZoneWatcher API to create monitoring for those zones. By the time your infrastructure is live, monitoring is active.

No manual steps. No forgotten zones. No waiting for monitoring to be configured.

For DevOps and SRE Teams

This is especially valuable for teams that handle infrastructure at scale. If you're already automating infrastructure provisioning, you can automate monitoring provisioning at the same time.

Zone creation, provider connection, and alert configuration can all be driven via API calls. Your entire monitoring setup becomes infrastructure-as-code.

Start Automating

If you're managing more than a handful of DNS zones, API-driven setup will save you time and reduce manual configuration errors. Your infrastructure and monitoring can be deployed together, staying in sync.

Check out the ZoneWatcher API documentation to start automating your DNS monitoring setup.
