NS1_URLFWD

NS1_URLFWD is an NS1-specific feature that maps to NS1's URLFWD record, which creates HTTP 301 (permanent) or 302 (temporary) redirects.

dnsconfig.js

D("example.com", REG_MY_PROVIDER, DnsProvider(DSP_MY_PROVIDER),
  NS1_URLFWD("urlfwd", "/ http://example.com 302 2 0")
);

The fields are:

• name: the record name

• target: a complex field containing the following, space separated:

  • from - the path to match

  • to - the url to redirect to

  • redirectType - (0 - masking, 301, 302)

  • pathForwardingMode - (0 - All, 1 - Capture, 2 - None)

  • queryForwardingMode - (0 - disabled, 1 - enabled)

WARNING: According to NS1, this type of record is deprecated and in the process of being replaced by the premium-only REDIRECT record type. While still able to be configured through the API, as suggested by NS1, please try not to use it, going forward.
