Good to Know
This is a gas-only transaction requiring ETH on Ethereum Mainnet.
The Manager role can update the records of a name. For wrapped names, the Manager is merged into the Owner role.
The total gas required is based on the amount of data being updated.
Note: Only .eth names and onchain subnames are supported in the ENS App. For project subnames (base.eth, uni.eth, etc), use their platform.
Edit Records vs Edit Profile
Edit Records is an alternative to Edit Profile that offers additional flexibility. While Edit Profile provides a guided interface for common record types, Edit Records allows you to:
Add multiple custom records in a single transaction.
Input record keys and values directly.
Work with any record type, including non-standard custom records.
How to Edit Records
Step 1: Select Edit Records
Navigate to the ENS App.
Connect your wallet.
Search for your name and open the Records tab.
Click Edit Records.
Step 2: Select Record Type
Choose the type of record you want to add from the dropdown menu, then click Add Record.
Step 3: Add the Specific Records
In the new field that appears, enter the name of your record. Custom records traditionally use reverse notation (e.g.
com.youtubefor youtube.com).Click Add.
Enter a value for your new record.
Repeat for any additional records you want to add.
Step 4: Confirm the Transaction
Click Save.
Click Open Wallet and confirm the transaction.
Once complete, the updated records will be displayed.
Adding Custom Service Keys
Some ENS records use a key name formatted in reverse dot notation. These are known as Service Keys, as specified in ENSIP-5.
For example, to save your YouTube channel name in your ENS records, create a custom record with the key com.youtube and set its value to your YouTube channel name. Common examples:
com.youtube– YouTube channelcom.github– GitHub usernamexyz.farcaster– Farcaster accountcom.linkedin– LinkedIn profile
Common Questions
How do I remove or update a record?
Use Edit Profile or Edit Records. To update a record, replace the existing value with the new one. To remove a record, click the ✕ icon next to it. Then save and confirm the transaction in your wallet.
Why don't I have a Manager?
Names wrapped in the Name Wrapper do not have a separate Manager field. The Manager role is merged into the Owner role. See Name Wrapper Overview.
What's the difference between Edit Records and Edit Profile?
Edit Profile provides a guided interface for common record types like social accounts and addresses. Edit Records offers more flexibility, allowing you to add multiple custom records in a single transaction and work with any record type directly.
Can I add multiple records at once?
Yes. Edit Records allows you to add multiple records and save them all in a single transaction, which can be more gas-efficient than adding them one at a time through Edit Profile.
