How this service works
Change watch for dns a via opendns: runs the check, compares it with the result from your previous call for the same domain (kept 90 days) and returns the current answer, changed true/false, the fields that changed with before/after values, and when it was last seen. Schedule it to be alerted when this changes. $0.02 per check.
Output
Returns the current DNS A record answer from OpenDNS, a boolean indicating whether the record changed since the last call, a diff of which fields changed with before/after values, and the timestamp of when the record was last seen. Previous results are retained for 90 days per domain.
Example use cases
Alert on domain IP address change
“Watch the A record for mycompany.com via OpenDNS and tell me if the IP address has changed since the last check — show me the before and after values if it has.”
Security monitoring for DNS hijacking
“I need to monitor the A record for bankingportal.com using OpenDNS and flag any changes — this is to detect potential DNS hijacking or unauthorized redirects.”
Track DNS propagation after migration
“We just migrated our servers for clientsite.io — can you check the A record via OpenDNS and tell me whether it's changed from what it was before and what the current IP is?”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://dns.intel.rallylive.ca/watch/dns/a/via/opendns?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need change detection specifically using OpenDNS as the resolver, which may differ from Cloudflare, Google, or other providers due to OpenDNS's filtering or different caching behavior. Ideal for scheduled polling workflows where you want diff-based alerting rather than just a raw DNS lookup. Prefer over raw DNS lookup endpoints when the goal is detecting drift or changes over time rather than a one-time resolution.
Side effects
- Domain not found or NXDOMAIN — returns empty record set with no change signal
- No previous result stored (first call) — changed will be false or null with no before value
- OpenDNS upstream timeout — may return an error or stale data
- Invalid domain format — request may fail or return empty response
- 90-day history expired — comparison unavailable, treated as first call
