Delete Zone¶
-
DELETEzones/(uuid: id)¶ Deletes a zone with the specified zone ID. Deleting a zone is asynchronous. Once pool manager has deleted the zone from all the pool targets, the zone is deleted from storage.
Example Request:
DELETE /v2/zones/a86dba58-0043-4cc6-a1bb-69d5e86f3ca3 HTTP/1.1 Host: 127.0.0.1:9001 Accept: application/json Content-Type: application/json
Example Response:
HTTP/1.1 202 Accepted
Status Codes: - 202 Accepted – Accepted
Abandon Zone¶
-
POST/zones/(uuid: id)/tasks/abandon¶ When a zone is abandoned it removes the zone from Designate’s storage. There is no operation done on the pool targets. This is intended to be used in the cases where Designate’s storage is incorrect for whatever reason. By default this is restricted by policy (abandon_domain) to admins.
Example Request:
POST /v2/zones/a86dba58-0043-4cc6-a1bb-69d5e86f3ca3/tasks/abandon HTTP/1.1 Host: 127.0.0.1:9001 Accept: application/json Content-Type: application/json
Example Response:
HTTP/1.1 204 No content
Status Codes: - 204 No Content – No content
Transfer Zone¶
Create Zone Transfer Request¶
-
POST/zones/(uuid: id)/tasks/transfer_requests¶ To initiate a transfer the original owner must create a transfer request.
- This will return two items that are required to continue:
- key: a password that is used to validate the transfer
- id: ID of the request.
Both of these should be communicated out of band (email / IM / etc) to the intended recipient
There is an option of limiting the transfer to a single project. If that is required, the person initiating the transfer will need the Project ID. This will also allow the targeted project to see the transfer in their list of requests.
A non-targeted request will not show in a list operation, apart from the owning projects request. An targeted request will only show in the targets and owners lists.
An un-targeted request can be viewed by any authenticated user.
Example Request
POST /v2/zones/6b78734a-aef1-45cd-9708-8eb3c2d26ff8/tasks/transfer_requests HTTP/1.1 Host: 127.0.0.1:9001 Accept: application/json Content-Type: application/json { "target_project_id": "123456", "description": "Transfer qa.dev.example.com. to QA Team" }
Example Response
HTTP/1.1 201 Created Content-Type: application/json { "created_at": "2014-07-17T20:34:40.882579", "description": null, "id": "f2ad17b5-807a-423f-a991-e06236c247be", "key": "9Z2R50Y0", "project_id": "1", "status": "ACTIVE", "target_project_id": "123456", "updated_at": null, "zone_id": "6b78734a-aef1-45cd-9708-8eb3c2d26ff8", "zone_name": "qa.dev.example.com.", "links": { "self": "http://127.0.0.1:9001/v2/zones/tasks/transfer_requests/f2ad17b5-807a-423f-a991-e06236c247be" } }

- target_project_id – Optional field to only allow a single tenant to accept the transfer request
