Sync Zone Records
Learn how to sync DNS records for a zone
If the DNS records list is empty, you need to sync the records first before you can manage them. This will fetch all DNS records from Cloudflare for that zone.
How to Sync Records
- If the DNS records list is empty, you'll see a 'Fetch Details' button in the top right corner
- Click 'Fetch Details' to sync all DNS records from Cloudflare for that zone
- After syncing, all DNS records will appear in the list and you can start managing them
What Gets Synced
Fetch Details will retrieve all DNS records (A, AAAA, CNAME, MX, TXT, etc.) from Cloudflare for the selected zone. This allows you to view and manage all records in aioflare.
Managing Zone Records

Edit Existing Record
To edit an existing DNS record, click on the record in the list or click the edit icon. You can modify the record's name, content, TTL, proxy status, and other settings. After making changes, click save to update the record.
