my $zone = $response->{hosted_zone};

# Create a new record
$r53->change_resource_record_sets(zone_id => $zone->{id},
                                  action => 'create',
                                  name => 'www.example.com.',

                                  value => '12.34.56.78');

# Modify records
$r53->change_resource_record_sets(zone_id => $zone->{id},
    changes => [
        {
            action => 'delete',
            name => 'www.example.com.',

        }
    ]);

METHODS

Required parameters are marked as such, other parameters are optional.

Instance methods return a false value on failure. More detailed error information can be obtained by calling "error".

The methods described below correspond to the 2013-04-01 version of the Route53 API. For the 2011-05-05 version, see WebService::Amazon::Route53::API::20110505.

new

Creates a new instance of a WebService::Amazon::Route53 API class.

                                           key => 'SECRETKEY');

Based on the value of the version parameter, the matching subclass of WebService::Amazon::Route53::API is instantiated (e.g., for version set to "2013-04-01", WebService::Amazon::Route53::API::20130401 is used). If the version parameter is omitted, the latest supported version is selected (currently "2013-04-01").

Parameters:

  • id

    (Required) AWS access key ID.

  • key

    (Required) Secret access key.

  • version

    Route53 API version (either "2013-04-01" or "2011-05-05", default: "2013-04-01").
