## Synopsis

- Manage DNS zones in a Memset account.

## Parameters

Parameter | Choices/Defaults | Comments
--- | --- | ---
api_key - / required |  | The API key obtained from the Memset control panel.
force boolean | Choices: no ← yes | Forces deletion of a zone and all zone domains/zone records it contains.
name - / required |  | The zone nickname; usually the same as the main domain. Ensure this value has at most 250 characters. aliases: nickname
state - / required | Choices: absent present | Indicates desired state of resource.
ttl - | Choices: 0 300 600 900 1800 3600 7200 10800 21600 43200 86400 | The default TTL for all records created in the zone. This must be a valid int from https://www.memset.com/apidocs/methods_dns.html#dns.zone_create.

## Notes

Note

- Zones can be thought of as a logical group of domains, all of which share the same DNS records (i.e. they point to the same IP). An API key generated via the Memset customer control panel is needed with the following minimum scope - dns.zone_create, dns.zone_delete, dns.zone_list.

## Examples

    # Create the zone 'test'
    - name: create zone
      memset_zone:
        name: test
        state: present
        api_key: 5eb86c9196ab03919abcf03857163741
        ttl: 300
      delegate_to: localhost

    # Force zone deletion
    - name: force delete zone
      memset_zone:
        name: test
        state: absent
        api_key: 5eb86c9196ab03919abcf03857163741
        force: true
      delegate_to: localhost

## Return Values

Key | Returned | Description
--- | --- | ---
memset_api complex | when state == present | Zone info from the Memset API
