Recovering IP Address for A Record

Question

I'm working to install an https cert on my site, and changed both my wildcard and www A record for my site, hosted on Lightsail / Route 53. Is there a Route 53 preference pane where I can recover the original A record information to put back in place?

Answer

Hello Devin,

From the Route53, there is no such option to retrieve/see the previous value of the record. However, you can use the Cloud Trail to view the any changes happened to the Route53 records.

Back in days, I think I have used the following event name "ChangeResourceRecordSets" to view the change logs. 
https://docs.aws.amazon.com/Route53/latest/APIReference/API_ChangeResourceRecordSets.html

Regards,
CK
