API Path Searching with FQDNs

Hello Forward Networks!

I have a question regarding if it's possible to add support to resolve FQDNs in the Path Search API? Or would we have to rely on our own DNS servers to make the resolutions first to then add the discovered IP Address to the source or destination.

 

Can it be possible for Forward Networks to model FQDNs as independent objects?

 

Apologies if this seems like a silly ask!

Thank you

No such thing as silly asks :)

 

In the current version, the path search API requires source and destination IP as arguments. So, you would need to resolve FQDNs independently before calling the API.

 

We are working on retrieving FQDN via zone transfers and including them as object properties, which will then make them available to the APIs as well.
Once available, the feature description will show up in the release notes. So, stay tuned.
