## Question

How to export a list with nameserver settings + dns records from the control panel?

## Answer

At the bottom of the [DNS zone overview page](https://cp.openprovider.eu/dns/overview.php), there is an option to generate a csv. The first part of the csv contains the current nameserver settings of the domains and the bottom part of the csv will contain all the dns records.

In case of a large domain portfolio, the csv will be send by email. This may take several minutes. In case you do not receive the email within a few minutes, please also check your spam-folder.

In case of a smaller domain portfolio, the csv will directly open.

It is not possible to make an export via the control panel for only a selected list of domains.  
If you want a custom list, we advise to use the API and build a custom request:

[https://doc.openprovider.eu/API\_Module\_Nameserver\_searchZoneRecordDnsRequest](https://doc.openprovider.eu/API_Module_Nameserver_searchZoneRecordDnsRequest)

This export is only available in .CSV format, not in BIND format.
