OVH API keys

Steps:
- Log in to ovh.com/manager
- Go to My account → API → My applications
- Click Create application
- Enter a name (e.g. "FastOVH") and description
- Copy the Application Key and Application Secret
- Then go to My account → API → My credentials and create a Consumer Key with the following permissions:
POST /domain/zone/*
PUT /domain/zone/*
DELETE /domain/zone/*
Tip: For read-only access, use only GET. For full management, include POST, PUT, DELETE.
Adding an OVH account
- Go to OVH Accounts in the left sidebar
- Click Add account
- Enter a label (e.g. "My main OVH"), your OVH NIC handle (e.g.
wd12345-ovh), and the three API keys - Click Save — FastOVH will verify the connection immediately

DNS records
On the DNS records page you can view, add, edit, and delete records for a domain.
Supported record types:
Adding a record:
