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)

OPTIONAL

auth = <TEXT> | <NULL>
transferlock = 0 | 1 | <NULL>
subuser = <TEXT> | <NULL>
nameserverset = <TEXT> | <NULL>

Domain Transfer

Transfers of .IO domains are possible. In general, you have 2 possibilities to transfer a .IO domain:

  • The admin or billing contact of the respective domain may be changed to the NIC handle of 1api: NIC-1132. Afterwards, a normal transfer without Authorization code, may be initiated using the API or the web interface.
  • The other possibility is to inititate a transfer, using the API or the web interface, and use the password of the admin or billing contact of the domain as Authorization code. The password may be obtained by contacting the registry.

In both cases, the transfer should be completed within a few minutes.

command = TransferDomain
domain = (DOMAIN)

REQUIRED

auth = <TEXT> | <NULL> | <NIC-1132>
action = REQUEST | DENY | CANCEL | USERTRANSFER

OPTIONAL

subuser = <TEXT> | <NULL>
period = <PERIOD>
transferlock = 0 | 1 | <NULL>
repository = <NULL> | <TEXT>


In addition to the "transfer in" possibilities, you also have the possibility to "push" a domain to another registrar, by using the PushDomain command, using the NIC handle (e.g. NIC-1234) of the future registrar as parameter "target".
REQUIRED

command = pushdomain
target = <TEXT>
