How this automation works

Email the current DNS record for a domain from GoDaddy. The Applet runs when you press the Button widget, asks GoDaddy for the DNS record you configure (domain and record name), and sends the result via Email. Useful for quickly verifying A, CNAME, or MX values without logging into GoDaddy — press the Button widget to have the record emailed to you. Note: Customize the message to fit your tone.
