To delete a specific record from a specific zone: ionosctl dns r del --zone ZONE --record RECORD Here, ZONE is the ID or name of the DNS zone from where you want to delete a record, and RECORD is the ID or full name of the DNS record you want to delete.
To delete all records, optionally filtering by partial name and zone: ionosctl dns r delete --all [--record PARTIAL_NAME] [--zone ZONE] Here, --all deletes all DNS records. You can also filter the records to delete by providing a PARTIAL_NAME that matches part of the name of the records you want to delete. Additionally, you can specify a ZONE to restrict the deletion to a specific DNS zone.
To delete a record by partial name, specifying the zone: ionosctl dns r delete --record PARTIAL_NAME --zone ZONE Here, PARTIAL_NAME is a part of the name of the DNS record you want to delete. If multiple records match the partial name, an error will be thrown: you will need to narrow down to a single record
Options
-a, --all Delete all records. You can optionally filter the deleted records using --zone (full name / ID) and --record (partial name)
-u, --api-url string Override default host url (default "dns.de-fra.ionos.com")
--cols strings Set of columns to be printed on output
Available columns: [Id Name Content Type Enabled FQDN State ZoneId ZoneName]
-c, --config string Configuration file used for authentication (default "$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/ionosctl/config.json")
-f, --force Force command to execute without user input
-h, --help Print usage
--no-headers Don't print table headers when table output is used
-o, --output string Desired output format [text|json|api-json] (default "text")
-q, --quiet Quiet output
-r, --record string The ID, or full name of the DNS record. Required together with --zone. Can also provide partial names, but must narrow down to a single record result if not using --all. If using it, will however delete all records that match.
-v, --verbose Print step-by-step process when running command
-z, --zone string The full name or ID of the zone of the containing the target record. If --all is set this is applied as a filter - limiting to records within this zone

ionosctl dns r del --zone ZONE --record RECORD
ionosctl dns r delete --all [--record PARTIAL_NAME] [--zone ZONE]
