API
Domain Registration
Domains can be registered with the API AddDomain command.
command = AddDomain domain = (DOMAIN)
REQUIRED
ownercontact0 = (CONTACT) admincontact0 = (CONTACT) techcontact0 = (CONTACT) billingcontact0 = (CONTACT) nameserver0 = (NAMESERVER) nameserver1 = (NAMESERVER) X-AU-REGISTRANT-ID-NUMBER = (TEXT) X-AU-REGISTRANT-ID-TYPE = ABN | ACN | TM | OTHER
OPTIONAL
auth = (TEXT) | (NULL) period = (PERIOD) transferlock = 0 | 1 | (NULL)
Further information can be found at TLD specific
Domain Transfer
The transfer has to be initiated by the gaining registrar and can be requested with the API TransferDomain command. An "Authorisation Code" must be provided in the request, which can be obtained from the current registrar by the owner or Admin-C of the domain. The Auth-code can also be requested directly from AuDA at https://pw.auda.org.au/
Please ensure, that you have a correct "Authorisation Code" associated with the domain, before initiating the transfer, otherwise it will fail.
Our system will send an FoA email to the Registrant. Once the Registrant has approved the request by clicking on the link in the FoA email, the transfer request will be submitted to the Registry (typically, the transfer takes place immediately).
command = TransferDomain domain = (DOMAIN)
REQUIRED
auth = <TEXT>
OPTIONAL
period = (PERIOD) ownercontact0 = (CONTACT) admincontact0 = (CONTACT) techcontact0 = (CONTACT) billingcontact0 = (CONTACT) transferlock = 0 | 1 | (NULL) action = REQUEST | APPROVE | DENY | CANCEL | USERTRANSFER
Delete Domain
Domains can be deleted with the API DeleteDomain command.
There is a Deletion Restorable Period of 1 day.
command = DeleteDomain domain = (DOMAIN)
Restore Domain
Restores can be processed automatically but not in realtime. A restore is possible within 1 day upon deletion. Please use the command RestoreDomain.
command = RestoreDomain domain = (DOMAIN)
OPTIONAL
subuser = (TEXT) renewalmode = (NULL) | (TEXT)
Ownerchange
In order to change the owner you have to request a trade with the TradeDomain command. This can be done through our web interface or through our API:
command = TradeDomain domain = (DOMAIN)
REQUIRED
Ownercontact0 = (CONTACT) X-AU-REGISTRANT-ID-NUMBER = (TEXT) X-AU-REGISTRANT-ID-TYPE = ABN | ACN | TM | OTHER
Once the trade has been requested, an FoA email is sent to both the losing and the gaining Registrants. Once both have clicked on the approval link, the request will be submitted to the Registry. This is typically processed in real-time.
