- REQUIRED FLAGS
-
-
--zone=ZONE,-zZONE - Name of the managed zone whose record sets you want to manage.
-
- OPTIONAL FLAGS
-
-
--location=LOCATION - Specifies the desired service location the request is sent to. Defaults to Cloud DNS global service. Use --location=global if you want to target the global service.
-
--zone-file-format - Indicates that records-file should be in the zone file format. When using this
flag, expect the record-set to be exported to a BIND zone formatted file. If you
omit this flag, the record-set is exported into a YAML formatted records file.

records-file; it is different from the global
--formatflag which affects console output alone.
