Public Cloud DNS Records Not Propagating after over 1 Week

I have set up Cloud DNS with a public DNS zone in a project, and have added the custom name servers to Google Domains. I have used Google Terraform Modules to create these records. After over 1 week, no records have yet been propagated to the public internet. 

How can I determine why this is not working?

I have already solved this. I deleted and recreated my DNS via Terraform with no changes to code and it worked. The only difference with nameservers was a switch from a1-a4 to c1-c4 servers. I suspect there was something up with the A servers. The first solution that you shared was also my solution on Stack Exchange lol.

Hi @Andar1an ,

Most of the time, if the DNS records are not propagating for this long, you'd need check for the NS (name server) if they match with the registrar. I suggest you add more details to your question like your domain, screenshot of your setup, documentations or guides that you followed, etc. 

You can also check and refer to the following discussions and related issues with your concerns, it has accepted solutions that you might want to try :
1. Google Cloud DNS Public Records Not Available after 2 weeks
2. Google Cloud DNS records do not propagate to any server
