NAME

SYNOPSIS
gcloud beta dns record-sets importRECORDS_FILE--zone=ZONE,-zZONE[--delete-all-existing][--location=LOCATION][--replace-origin-ns][--zone-file-format][GCLOUD_WIDE_FLAG …]
DESCRIPTION
(BETA) This command imports record-sets contained within thespecified record-sets file into your managed-zone. Note that NS records for theorigin of the zone and the SOA NS field are not imported since name-servers aremanaged by Cloud DNS. By default, record-sets cannot be imported if there areany conflicts. A conflict exists if an existing record-set has the same name andtype as a record-set that is being imported. In contrast, if the--delete-all-existing flag is used, the imported record-sets will replace allthe records-sets currently in the managed-zone.
