Glide API [WIP]

Changing MX, A, or CNAME records to fit a new blogging platform, portfolio or webhosting service can be daunting for users. (Have you seen GoDaddy's interface?) I've been working on Glide, which is an API service that lets developers make slight changes to users' DNS records through API calls.

There's a lot of registrars out there... most who don't offer great APIs. Glide can programmatically add/change TXT, CNAME or A records so customers point their domain your service. Adjust or add MX records as an email hosting provider. Or verify domain name ownership.

Glide also keeps a record of all programmatic changes. Customers can revert changes with one-click on your site. We're supporting the top ten domain registrars right now, but offer detailed, embeddable, always-up-to-date guides for a lot more registrars.
