We have a domain coolcats.com and need to add ALIAS coolcats.com to pixie.porkbun.com where our website is hosted. I don't see how to add an ALIAS record in google cloud DNS? Can I do it via an api perhaps?

Unfortunately, Cloud DNS at the moment doesn't support ALIAS records. Have a loom at the Supported DNS record types.
You can file a Feature Request
at Google Public Issue Tracker under this component. Also, as a workaround, you can set up your own DNS server inside VM like PowerDNS.

1What about doing CNAME @domain.com -> pixie.porkbun.comm. That seems to work just fine as an alias now. Doing it with blank didn't work but adding the @ symbol seems to work. – Dean Hiller Feb 24 '20 at 20:05

Could be a solutions if it works for you. I'll be able to check it tomorrow. – Serhii Rohoza Feb 24 '20 at 20:24

oh, I don't think that worked after all. I just routed the name to the ip instead :(. – Dean Hiller Feb 24 '20 at 20:54

I'd recommend you to file a Feature Request in that case. – Serhii Rohoza Feb 25 '20 at 07:41
