IONOS Hosting Services ACTION
Patch DNS Zone
Partially update a DNS zone (HTTP PATCH): for each provided record, all existing records sharing the same name and type are replaced with the provided ones. Records with other name/type combinations are left untouched. For a full zone overwrite use Update DNS Zone (Full Replace) instead. Run List DNS Zones to find the zone ID. See the documentation.

IMPLEMENTATION
Call this tool
Connect a user's IONOS Hosting Services account once, then configure and run Patch DNS Zone from your backend or agent.
import { PipedreamClient } from "@pipedream/sdk"
const pd = new PipedreamClient({
projectId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_PROJECT_ID!,
clientId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_ID!,
clientSecret: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_SECRET!,
projectEnvironment: "production",
})
const result = await pd.actions.run({
id: "ionos_hosting_services-patch-dns-zone",
externalUserId: "{external_user_id}", // any stable ID for this user in your system
configuredProps: {
ionos_hosting_services: { authProvisionId: "apn_xxxxxxx" },
zoneId: "Zone ID",
records: "Records",
},
})

await mcp.connect(transport)
const { tools } = await mcp.listTools()
// listTools() hands your model this tool's input schema, so it can
// fill the arguments itself:

Inputs
Pipedream supplies the connected account. Your application provides the operation-specific values below. Dynamic inputs are resolved against that user's account.
| Property | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
zoneId Zone ID | string | The DNS zone ID (UUID format, e.g. 4ab3a7e2-1234-5678-abcd-ef0123456789). Run List DNS Zones to retrieve available zones; use the id field from each returned object — not the name field (e.g. example.com) or the type field. Required |
records Records | string | JSON array of record objects to apply. For each name+type in this list, matching records in the zone are replaced. Each object: { "name": "www.example.com", "type": "A", "content": "5.6.7.8", "ttl": 3600, "prio": 0, "disabled": false }. name, type, and content are required; name must be the fully-qualified domain name including the zone domain (e.g. www.example.com) - a short name like www is invalid. type must be one of the DNS record type constants (e.g. A, AAAA, CNAME, MX, TXT). Example: [{"name":"www.example.com","type":"A","content":"5.6.7.8","ttl":3600}]. Required |

Behavior hints are published with the component in the Pipedream registry and surface as MCP tool annotations, so an agent can reason about a tool before it calls it.
