Hello,

@evantill I tried using the new Gandi Live dynamic dns but it is failing to update,

I have using this until now.

What version of Gandi live DNS are you on? I'm on v5 and it works.

@jwj I am on V5 too. I filled the hostname(pbx), domain name(xx.com) and api key.

The other thing I did is regenerate my key Yesterday before setting up the DDNS client. Strange, when it worked the first time for me I was surprised to a degree. I then put in a different host to check that it created the A record. Any possibility that it's being blocked? I do know that some of the Gandi ip's are in the top spammers list if you use GEOIP blocking. I got hit by that when I was using Gandi for email.

@jwj This is what i use at the command line to update DNS

curl  -XPUT -d '{"rrset_values": ["1.2.3.4"]}' -H "X-Api-Key: ApiKeyblahblah"  -H "Content-Type: application/json" "https://dns.api.gandi.net/api/v5/domains/mydomain.com/records/myhostname/A"

Where do i put "mydomain.com", "myhostname", "A" and "ApiKeyblahblah"?

I had to put TTL as well. Now the dns updates fine. Solved!

Seems to be working fine without the TTL now.

Although pfSense still only supports API key (which Gandi states is "deprecated) and not Personal Access Token (PAT).
