Google Domains

I am glad that someone has finally started work on a Google Cloud DNS provider, but I am unsure of how to use this with Google Domains.

Reading online articles, it appears that Google Domains is separate from Google Cloud DNS (see this Let's Encrypt community post). I don't believe the Cloud DNS provider can be used for Google Domains.

Damn it, could have sworn I saw somewhere that you could use Cloud DNS for Google Domains stuff. Do you think I could manually add the txt record for *.domain. com and then just blanket everything with that?

Google Domains has a separate API: libdns/libdns#40

[bdgit]

Google Domains will work the same as DynDNS. With other products, typically select that... enter the target subdomain, random username, random password, and for server > domains.google.com

I have not looked into Caddy options for this yet.

Google Domains now has an API but only for ACME challenges: https://github.com/caddy-dns/google-domains

(If that fulfills the use case for this issue, we can probably close it.)
