Resolve live DNS records for any domain — A, AAAA, CNAME, MX, TXT, NS, SOA and CAA — with real TTL values. Debug websites and email in seconds.
Resolved live via public DNS-over-HTTPS (dns.google).
Enter a domain and pick a record type to see live DNS answers.
DNS answers come from the public dns.google resolver in real time. We do not store or log the domains you query.
The Domain Name System (DNS) is the internet's phone book: it converts human-friendly names like thestockit.com into the IP addresses computers use to reach each other. DNS records are the individual entries that define how a domain works.
The A record points your domain at a server's IPv4 address — this is the record that makes your website load. MX records tell the internet where to deliver your email. TXT records carry verification strings and email-authentication policies like SPF. CNAME aliases one name to another, NS lists the authoritative nameservers, and SOA is the record that opens the authority chain.
When a website or email suddenly stops working, DNS is often the culprit. A few of the most common situations where this lookup saves the day:
Because our results come from a live public resolver (dns.google), you see the exact answers your visitors' devices would receive — including the TTL, which tells you how long before a change fully propagates.
v=spf1 lists every server allowed to send on your behalf.Run the MX lookup and a TXT lookup on your domain to confirm the first two items now. For a deeper guide, read our introduction to DNS.
When you order web hosting, you receive an IP address (or a hostname) to point your domain at. On most hosting plans the nameservers you are given are the NS records, and the A record maps the domain to the server. After registration, DNS propagation can take from a few minutes to 48 hours — this lookup lets you watch it go live in real time.
