Access via HTTPS at api.name.com (production) or api.dev.name.com (testing). Supports standard authentication, rate-limited to 20 requests/second. title: name.com Core API version: 1.29.4 termsOfService: https://www.name.com/policies/api-access-agreement servers: - description: Testing url: https://api.dev.name.com security: - BasicAuth: [] tags: - name: Hello description: >- Use the Hello endpoint to verify that your API connection and credentials are working properly. This simple call returns a success message (along with server time and version info) to confirm the API is reachable and authenticated. - name: Account Info description: >- Use Account Info endpoints to retrieve basic information about your name.com account. For example, you can check your account’s current credit balance and other account details using these endpoints. - name: Accounts description: >- Use Accounts endpoints (available upon request) to manage sub-accounts under your main account. For example, resellers can programmatically create new customer accounts with their own login credentials and permissions. - name: Domains description: >- Use Domains endpoints to search for domain availability, register new domains, and manage existing domains. - name: Contact Verification description: >- Use Contact Verification endpoints to query a reseller’s unverified domains/emails and to programmatically mark an end user’s email as verified if the reseller has already completed the verification process. These endpoints help resellers meet ICANN requirements by ensuring end users confirm they can receive email at their listed address. - name: DNS description: >- Use DNS endpoints to manage DNS records for your domains. You can list all existing DNS records for a domain and create, update, or delete records as needed. - name: DNSSECs description: >- Use DNSSEC endpoints to configure DNS Security Extensions for your domains. These endpoints allow you to add, retrieve, or remove DNSSEC records. - name: Email Forwardings description: >- Use Email Forwardings endpoints to set up and manage email forwarding addresses on your domains. - name: URL Forwardings description: >- Use URL Forwardings endpoints to control URL redirection settings for your domains. - name: Vanity Nameservers description: >- Use Vanity Nameservers endpoints to configure custom nameserver hostnames (glue records) for your domains. - name: Transfers description: >- Use Transfers endpoints to move domains into your name.com account. Start by creating a transfer request for inbound transfers from **external** registrars, then monitor and manage the status of pending transfers. Use **internal transfer in** to pull a domain from another name.com account into your reseller account (enterprise allowlist; requires auth code from the losing account’s dashboard). You can cancel an incoming transfer if needed, or cancel an outbound transfer (domain leaving name.com) via the external transfer-out cancel endpoint. Use the **transfer eligibility** endpoint to check whether a domain is currently at name.com before initiating a transfer, so you can route to the correct flow (external vs internal transfer). - name: Orders description: Use Orders endpoints to review and track purchases made via the API. - name: Refunds description: > Use the Refunds endpoint to delete eligible domains and advanced security products during the Add Grace Period (AGP) and automatically issue refunds for the associated order items. You can use the List Orders endpoint to retrieve order IDs, then pass those IDs into the Refunds endpoint to process eligible deletions and refunds. This endpoint enforces AGP delete limits and supports only domain registrations and advanced security add-ons. Refunds are issued to the original payment method on file. If the original payment method is unavailable, the refund will be credited to the account balance. - name: Webhook Notifications description: > Use Webhook Notification endpoints to subscribe to real-time notifications for account and domain events. This keeps your application updated on important changes without polling the API. Outbound webhook POSTs include an `X-NAMECOM-SIGNATURE` header. HMAC uses one API v4 token per account, chosen deterministically when multiple tokens exist (see HMAC Signature Verification in the developer docs). The signing input format is unchanged. - name: Domain Info description: >- Use Domain Info endpoints to retrieve information about TLD-specific requirements and registration rules. These endpoints help you understand what fields, documents, or constraints are needed to successfully register domains across different TLDs. - name: TLD Pricing description: >- Use TLD Pricing endpoints to retrieve general pricing information for your account. - name: Premium Domains description: APIs for working with Premium Domains. paths: /core/v1/domains/{domainName}: get: tags: - Domains summary: Get Domain description: Retrieves detailed information for a specific domain in your account. operationId: GetDomain parameters: - description: DomainName is the domain to retrieve. in: path name: domainName required: true schema: type: string example: example.com responses: '200': description: A successful response. content: application/json: schema: $ref: '#/components/schemas/DomainResponsePayload' '401': description: Unauthorized. content: application/json: schema: type: object required: - message properties: message: type: string description: >- A human-readable message providing more details about the error example: Unauthorized '403': description: Forbidden - you do not have permission to perform this action. content: application/json: schema: type: object required: - message properties: message: type: string description: >- A human-readable message providing more details about the error example: Permission denied details: type: - string - 'null' description: Additional context or information about the error example: Failed authentication '404': description: The requested domain could not be located. content: application/json: schema: $ref: '#/components/schemas/NotFound404' '405': description: Method not allowed. content: application/json: schema: type: object required: - message properties: message: type: string description: >- A human-readable message providing more details about the error example: Method Not Allowed '429': description: Rate limit has been exceeded. content: application/json: schema: type: object required: - message - details properties: message: type: string description: >- ### Too Many Requests You have exceeded the rate limit. **Headers returned:** * 'X-RateLimit-Reset': An integer (UTC epoch) indicating when you can retry. example: Rate Limit Exceeded headers: x-ratelimit-reset: description: >- Unix timestamp for the time at which the current rate limit will reset. schema: type: number example: 1747668270 '500': description: Internal server error. content: application/json: schema: type: object required: - message properties: message: type: string description: >- A human-readable message providing more details about the error. example: Internal Server Error details: type: - string - 'null' description: Additional context or information about the error. example: Something went wrong.
