Authorization
string
header
required

Authenticate via HTTP Basic with your account username and API token. Examples use an explicit 'Authorization: Basic <base64(username:token)>' header; 'curl -u username:token' is equivalent. For sandbox, append "-test" to your username and use your sandbox token on api.dev.name.com.

string[]

The list of nameservers assigned to this domain. If unspecified, it defaults to the account's default nameservers.

Example:

string[]
read-only

List of all registry locking statuses currently applied to the domain. Use this to see which locks are active (e.g. clientTransferProhibited, clientHold). Empty when the domain has no locks applied.

Example:
transferLockExpiresAt
string<date-time>
read-only

When present, the domain has an active ICANN-mandated transfer lock (new registration, transfer-in, or material registrant contact change) that blocks client unlock via the API until this time. When omitted, there is no active policy transfer lock with a known expiry — the domain may still be locked (locked: true) due to a voluntary user lock. Does not represent RegistrarLock, AccountLock, verification holds, trademark-claim locks, or admin TransferLock with no expiry date.

Example:

"2023-03-16T14:30:00Z"

renewalPrice
number<double>
read-only
