aws_route53_zone

Provides a Route53 Hosted Zone resource.

Example Usage

resource "aws_route53_zone" "primary" {
  name = "example.com"
}

For use in subdomains, note that you need to create a aws_route53_record of type NS as well as the subdomain zone.

resource "aws_route53_zone" "main" {
  name = "example.com"
}

resource "aws_route53_zone" "dev" {
  name = "dev.example.com"

  tags {
    Environment = "dev"
  }
}

resource "aws_route53_record" "dev-ns" {
  zone_id = "${aws_route53_zone.main.zone_id}"
  name    = "dev.example.com"
  type    = "NS"
  ttl     = "30"

  records = [
    "${aws_route53_zone.dev.name_servers.0}",
    "${aws_route53_zone.dev.name_servers.1}",
    "${aws_route53_zone.dev.name_servers.2}",
    "${aws_route53_zone.dev.name_servers.3}",
  ]
}

Argument Reference

The following arguments are supported:

• name - (Required) This is the name of the hosted zone.
• comment - (Optional) A comment for the hosted zone. Defaults to 'Managed by Terraform'.
• tags - (Optional) A mapping of tags to assign to the zone.
• vpc_id - (Optional) The VPC to associate with a private hosted zone. Specifying vpc_id will create a private hosted zone. Conflicts w/ delegation_set_id as delegation sets can only be used for public zones.
• vpc_region - (Optional) The VPC's region. Defaults to the region of the AWS provider.
• delegation_set_id - (Optional) The ID of the reusable delegation set whose NS records you want to assign to the hosted zone. Conflicts w/ vpc_id as delegation sets can only be used for public zones.
• force_destroy - (Optional) Whether to destroy all records (possibly managed outside of Terraform) in the zone when destroying the zone.

Attributes Reference

In addition to all arguments above, the following attributes are exported:

• zone_id - The Hosted Zone ID. This can be referenced by zone records.
• name_servers - A list of name servers in associated (or default) delegation set. Find more about delegation sets in AWS docs.

Import

Route53 Zones can be imported using the zone id, e.g.

$ terraform import aws_route53_zone.myzone Z1D633PJN98FT9
