title: Removed unused meta fields from DNS records
description: Cloudflare is removing five fields from the meta object of DNS records.
date: 2025-02-02T18:00:00Z
---

Cloudflare is removing five fields from the `meta` object of DNS records. These fields have been unused for more than a year and are no longer set on new records. This change may take up to four weeks to fully roll out.

The affected fields are:

- the `auto_added` boolean
- the `managed_by_apps` boolean and corresponding `apps_install_id`
- the `managed_by_argo_tunnel` boolean and corresponding `argo_tunnel_id`

An example record returned from the API would now look like the following:

```json title="Updated API Response" del={14-16}
{
"result": {
"id": "<ID>",
"zone_id": "<ZONE_ID>",
"zone_name": "example.com",
"name": "www.example.com",
"type": "A",

"locked": false,

"auto_added": false,
"managed_by_apps": false,

"modified_on": "2025-03-17T20:37:05.368097Z"
},
"success": true,
"errors": [],
"messages": []
}
```
