Managing DNS records
An overview of the DNS record types Batlify supports and when to use each one.
Last updated: September 19, 2026Edit this page
DNS records determine where requests for your domain get routed - to your web hosting, email, or another service.
Supported record types
- A - points the domain at a server's IPv4 address.
- AAAA - the same for IPv6.
- CNAME - aliases one domain/subdomain to another.
- MX - determines where email gets delivered.
- TXT - arbitrary text, often used for domain ownership verification (SPF, DKIM).
Warning
Changing an MX record without backing up the original value can briefly disrupt email delivery. Always note down changes beforehand.
Example configuration
