Update GoDaddy DNS when Webhooks event arrives

Connect

How this automation works

Update a GoDaddy DNS record automatically. It runs when Webhooks (Maker) receives a web request event and replaces the specified DNS record on your GoDaddy domain with the value supplied in the webhook. Useful for dynamic IP updates, monitoring-driven changes, or integrations where systems post JSON to Webhooks and you want GoDaddy to reflect the new value. Note: This requires a reachable webhook endpoint (URL).
