Welcome

• Yes, I've searched similar issues on GitHub and didn't find any.
• Yes, the DNS provider exposes a public API.
• Yes, I know that the lego maintainers don't have an account in all DNS providers in the world.
• Yes, I'm able to create a pull request and be able to maintain the implementation.
• Yes, I'm able to test an implementation if someone creates a pull request to add the support of this DNS provider.

How do you use lego?

Additional Notes

Using Lego implemented into Zoraxy.

I´ve added a URL to a Cerbot plugin for this provider, as I don't know if documentation is available. But with this provider it its already implemented for nginx proxy manager. I hope this helps too.

Hello,

The implementation https://github.com/FlixMa/certbot-dns-strato/blob/main/certbot_dns_strato/dns_strato.py doesn't use an API but HTML scrapping.

In lego, we only use API because lego can be used with many domains and HTML scrapping is slow and weak.

I don't know if a real API exists or not, but I recommend contacting Strato to ask them.

I found this API doc but it's not for handling DNS entries.

So I found no useful API for lego.

I still recommend contacting Strato to ask them.

As a workaround, if you have a domain owned by another DNS provider, you can use CNAME.

Thanks for the quick answer and explanation. Totally makes sense.

I´ve opened a ticket at Strato and asked for an API. Will update ASAP then.

As I am also a strato customer, I would be interested in any progress =)

Oof, sorry. Totally forgot to answer.

Strato does NOT offer API for this.

To bad, thanks for the feedback.
