DNS Lookup

Look up A, AAAA, MX, TXT, NS, CNAME, SOA, and CAA records for any domain — via DNS-over-HTTPS, in your browser.

Overview

This DNS lookup tool queries DNS records for any domain straight from your browser using DNS-over-HTTPS. Pick a record type — A, AAAA, MX, TXT, NS, CNAME, SOA, or CAA — and a resolver (Cloudflare or Google), and the matching records are shown with their TTL and values. Because the query goes directly from your browser to the resolver, we never see the domains you check. It's a fast, private alternative to command-line dig for verifying DNS changes, mail configuration, and domain records.

Key Features

  • Query A, AAAA, MX, TXT, NS, CNAME, SOA, and CAA records
  • Choose Cloudflare (1.1.1.1) or Google (8.8.8.8) as the resolver
  • Runs entirely in your browser over DNS-over-HTTPS
  • Clear TTL and record values in a scannable table
  • Helpful messages for NXDOMAIN and other resolver errors
  • No server of ours in the middle — no logging

Common Use Cases

  • Verifying DNS changes propagated — Check A or CNAME records against both resolvers after updating your DNS to confirm the new values are live.
  • Debugging email deliverability — Inspect MX and TXT (SPF/DKIM/DMARC) records to make sure your mail configuration is correct.
  • Auditing a domain's setup — Review NS, SOA, and CAA records to understand who runs a domain's DNS and which authorities can issue its certificates.

How It Works
1

Enter a domain

Type a domain name like example.com and pick the record type you want to see.

2

Pick a resolver

Choose Cloudflare or Google. Your browser sends the query directly to that resolver over HTTPS.

3

Read the records

Matching records appear in a table with their type, TTL, and value. Switch types to explore mail, text, and nameserver records.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this send my query to your server?
No. The lookup runs in your browser and goes directly to the DNS-over-HTTPS resolver you choose (Cloudflare or Google). We never see the domains you look up.

What does NXDOMAIN mean?
NXDOMAIN means the domain does not exist in DNS. Double-check the spelling — a typo is the most common cause.

Why do I see different results from different resolvers?
Resolvers cache records for their TTL, so one may still be serving an older answer after a change. Comparing Cloudflare and Google can reveal propagation differences.
