DNS change history and rollback

Every time someone on your team creates, updates, or deletes a DNS record in a zone, Expanse Panel can log that action in change history for that zone.

Where to find it

Open the zone from Networking, then open the History tab (or the tab named for change history in your build). You will see a list of events with:

• Action — create, update, or delete.
• Record — name and type affected.
• Old and new values — what changed, where the product shows them.
• Time — when the change happened.

The newest changes appear first. Very large zones or busy teams may only show the most recent entries at once.

How rollback works

Rollback reverses one history entry at a time—it does not reset the entire zone to a past date in one click.

• Create rollback: removes the record that was added in that event.
• Delete rollback: restores the first record payload stored in that delete event. If the same name and type already exists again, rollback may be refused with a clear error so you do not create duplicates.
• Update rollback: restores the previous content (and TTL where stored) from before that edit.

Use rollback when you accidentally changed or removed a record and want the prior state back. After rollback, a new history entry may appear reflecting the undo.

Permissions and blocks

• You must have access to the team and zone.
• For registered domains through Expanse, the same registrant verification rules that apply to manual DNS edits can apply to rollback. If rollback is blocked, open Registrant contacts and complete Verify, then try again.

Tips

• For large planned changes, consider export (if available) before editing so you have a file copy.
• Rollback is precise: pick the exact history row that matches the mistake you want to undo.
