DynDNS Hostnames

To register a new DynDNS hostname, first log in to our Customer Center at account.creoline.com using your login credentials.

Create a Hostname

Use the sidebar to navigate to the DNS → DynDNS menu item.

Use the Create Hostname button to create a new DynDNS hostname.

If you operate your own DNS zones via our Anycast DNS network, you can use your own domain names in the DynDNS Domain dropdown menu.

If you do not operate your own DNS zone via creoline, you can use the following provided DNS zones for your DynDNS hostname:

Enter the desired hostname in the Hostname field. Only letters and numbers may be used for the hostname. The hostname must also consist of at least 4 characters.

Once the hostname has been successfully created, you can view its details by clicking on the hostname you just created:

Update API

The Update API can be used to update the IP address of the DynDNS hostname from an external device. You can find step-by-step instructions for common routers in the Help Center article DynDNS Setup.

Example Update Request:

To update the IP address, a GET request with the appropriate credentials must be sent to the Update API endpoint. The request must be authorized using HTTP Basic Authentication.

Example:

GET https://api.creoline.com/dyndns/update/?domain=demo.dyndns.app&ipv4=127.0.0.1

Removing Hostnames

To remove an existing hostname, open the details view for the hostname you want to remove. You can then remove the hostname via the menu item Settings → Remove Hostname.

Make sure beforehand that the hostname is no longer in use, as removing the hostname cannot be undone.
