General Discussion / Questions in using aliyun.com for Dynamic DNS

« on: July 03, 2021, 08:41:19 pm »

Hello all.

Is it possible to use aliyun.com for Dynamic DNS in OPNsense?
I've read the documentation of Aliyun DNS API, and I don't think it's as simple as one line of curl. Did anyone get it working with custom configuration?

Or, can I just request for this as a feature? This post (https://forum.opnsense.org/index.php?topic=4854.0) in the Chinese forum successfully requested for 3322.org and oray.com, but they both charge service fee for 'advanced' features.
Also, I'd like to point out that aliyun.com DNS API is an option in the ACME client plugin.

Your reply is appreciated.

• Many others available by searching 'aliyun ddns'.

Update: I found another post (https://forum.opnsense.org/index.php?topic=17478.0) in the Chinese forum in which the same feature was requested for, but had no reply for over a year.
