# DMAPI # Basics

## Commonalities for all requests DMAPI-Server URL This is the service address which has to be used for all requests: `https://dmapi.joker.com` This is how a request looks like: `https://dmapi.joker.com/request/?=` `&=&auth-sid=` Header fields which are returned by most requests

Tracking Id	Unique server-assigned tracking id, assigned to almost all requests
Status-Code	0 or 1000-1999 if no error occured, all other values indicate some sort of error.
Status-Text	Human readable error description
Result	ACK or NACK (= "Acknowlegded" or "Not Acknowledged")
Error	May be returned if (and only if) the request was rejected, in this case reason(s) will be provided. Presence of this line in headers is indicative for that processing didn't take place.
Warning	Indicative of non-fatal processing or validation problems
Proc-Id	Joker.com processing ID
HTTP error codes	200 if everything is OK (request was accepted and processed or queued for processing), otherwise the reason will be provided in Error header lines (or, if this is absent, HTTP error code should be used).

**IMPORTANT**: Every request (except "login") **requires** the presence of the **Auth-Sid** variable ("**Session ID**"), which is returned by the "login" request (login). An active session will expire after some inactivity period (default: 1 hour). In case you are using a browser to access this service, the session id will be set as a cookie, hence need not to be specified as Auth-Sid (unless cookies are not supported or turned off). In any case, Auth-Sid has precedence, if provided. Requests consist of these parts: - **"Requires":** Defines variables (sometimes referred to as 'fields') that **MUST** be present - **"Accepts":** Defines variables that **MAY** be present (but not required) - **"Returns":** Describes the request's output - header fields and extra data (if any). If "Returns" is omitted, then a standard reply should be expected (Status-Code, Status-Text, Proc-ID etc)

## Whois Privacy Services **Privacy services are available for most generic top level domain names.** The availablitiy of privacy services is indicated in Joker.com's [price list](https://joker.com/goto/prices) and [domain search](https://joker.com/goto/order). For requests "**domain-register**" and "**domain-transfer-in-reseller**", there exists an **additional parameter** "privacy": - privacy=**basic** (owner contact name and/or organisation left intact, address & emails are masked) - privacy=**pro** (everything is masked) - privacy=**none** (same as "no privacy parameter provided") For "**domain-renew**", the additional parameter privacy works similar: - privacy=**basic** (owner contact name and/or organisation left intact, address & emails are masked) - privacy=**pro** (everything is masked) - privacy=**none** (explicitly do a renew without privacy services, even if currently privacy is enabled) - privacy=**keep** (renew with the same level of privacy service which is currently active for the domain) - this now is also **default**; for domains without an existing privacy service subscription, "keep" means "none", so there will be no privacy service ordered. If there is an existing privacy service subscription active, and this privacy service is **not** set to "off", "keep" will also renew this privacy service subscription, together with the domain. To **order privacy services for existing domains**, the new request "**domain-privacy-order**"can be used: ``` domain=example.com period=12 (in months, as usual) expyear=2016 (privacy expiration year, similar to domain renewal request) privacy=basic|pro If neither period nor expyear is provided, then privacy is ordered for remaining domain lifetime, whatever it is.

Example:

https://dmapi.joker.com/request/domain-privacy-order?domain=example.com&privacy=basic&auth-sid=

``` The request "**domain-set-property"** allows to **manage privacy services** for domains which already do have a valid privacy service subscription: - privacy=basic (activate "basic" privacy service) - privacy=pro (activate "pro" privacy service) - privacy=off (deactivate privacy service - **Whois data will be disclosed**) **Samples:** Ordering domain with privacy: `https://dmapi.joker.com/request/domain-register?domain=example.com&period=12&owner-c=CCOM-1&billing-c=CCOM-1&admin-c=CCOM-1&tech-c=CCOM-1&ns-list=a.ns.joker.com:b.ns.joker.com&privacy=pro&auth-sid=` Renew domain and order privacy: `https://dmapi.joker.com/request/domain-register?domain=example.com&period=12&privacy=basic&auth-sid=` Request incoming transfer and enable privacy: `https://dmapi.joker.com/request/domain-transfer-in-reseller?domain=example.com&transfer-auth-id=zigzag&billing-c=CCOM-1&admin-c=CCOM-1&tech-c=CCOM-1&privacy=pro&auth-sid=` Temporarily disable privacy (assuming that it is active): `https://dmapi.joker.com/request/domain-set-property?domain=example.com&privacy=off&auth-sid=` Fetch real contact data from privacy protected domain: `https://dmapi.joker.com/request/query-whois?domain=example.com&internal=1&auth-sid=` **NOTE**: Not retrieved replies will be kept on the server for a period of 30 days, after this time, only the status of specific request will be available (success or failure). **IMPORTANT**: Please also note that the registration/renewal period is in **MONTHS, NOT YEARS**!

# Account and Handling ## login ### Login with Username & Password **Requires (mandatory):**

username	Joker.com username (email address)
password	Joker.com password

**Returns:**

Auth-SID	Authenticated Session ID, must be provided with any other request (parameter auth-sid)
List of TLDs	List of domain TLDs which are available to the reseller.

To be able to use the entire API, you must have a reseller account with Joker.com (and use this account to log in). **Example:** ` https://dmapi.joker.com/request/login?username=johndoe&password=mypass` ### Login with API Keys Instead of using your user- and password credentials, you may also use so called '**API keys**' for login. This way, you can create several DMAPI access facilities, which has several advantages: - you do not need to expose username and password in your scripts - API keys **can be restricted** to be "read only" (no modifications possible), or to allow 'modifications only' (can not produce costs) - you may hand API keys to your staff to enable them to do specific things with Joker.com Create your API keys in '[**My Profile**](https://joker.com/goto/myjoker)' in section '**Manage Joker.com API access keys**' Example usage: ``` https://dmapi.joker.com/request/login?api-key=Key_created_in_your_Profile_at_Joker.com ``` The result is the same as for "login"-request, you have to use the provided auth-sid for the subsequent actions. ## logout **Returns: Nothing** Used to forcibly close (terminate) a session. The session identified by Auth-SID may not be used anymore to send requests. Normally not required as session will timeout anyway (default: 1 hour). ## result-list **Accepts:**

All following filters may use patterns ("\*" and "?")
pending	get results of requests still in progress
showall	get all results incl. deletes using result-delete
period	get results for specifed period of days (default: 90)
date	get results received on (or before) specified date. When date is specified, parameter "period" will be applied to this date (instead of today) and defaults to 1
offset	start dispalying results from specified position
limit	only get number of results specified by limit
status	get results having specified status (ack/nack/?)
count-only	when set to 1, only count number of records and return single line in format "Records: N"
rtype	get results for requests of specified type (domain-register/etc)
objid	get results for specified object ids (domain names, contacts, hosts)
procid	get results for specified proc-id
svtrid	get results for specifued SvTrId
cltrid	get results for specified ClTrId

**Returns:** List of answers from joker.com (one per line): ``` TimeStamp SvTrId Proc-ID request-type status ClTrId ``` **Where:** ``` TimeStamp: The time when request was made, YYYYMMDDHHMMSS SvTrID: Tracking-Id associated with this request. Proc-ID: Proc-Id associated with this request. request-type: The type of the request. request-object: The object name (host, domain or contact handle) status: ack, nack or ?, where ack means that request was completed successfully. ClTrId: User specified transaction ID, or "-" if nothing was provided by the user ``` **Example:** ``` https://dmapi.joker.com/request/result-list ``` ## result-retrieve **Accepts:**

Proc-ID	One of these must be specified. If both are specified, SvTrId has precedence.
SvTrID

**Returns:**

Answer (processing result) associated with specified Tracking/Processing ID. If detailed information (content) is not available, only status will be returned

**Please note:** Since there is no requirement of uniqueness for user-specified transaction ids, it is not possible to use them to retrieve specific results. **Example:** ` https://dmapi.joker.com/request/result-retrieve?proc-id=8181810&auth-sid=` ## result-delete **Accepts:**

Proc-ID	One of these must be specified. If both are specified, SvTrId has precedence
SvTrID

**Returns:** A descriptive message (confirmation) in case of success. This request will delete the content (not the status) of a reply to an asynchronous request. Deleted results will not be listed anymore when using *result-list*. ## query-profile **Returns:** Returns reseller profile data in format "key: value". May be used to query account balance Example: ``` https://dmapi.joker.com/request/query-profile ``` ## query-account-balance **Returns:** Returns actual account balance - available, pending and total. Example: ``` https://dmapi.joker.com/request/query-account-balance ``` You will get a response like this: ``` Status-Code: 1000 Status-Text: OK Columns: available,pending,total,currency Separator: TAB 975.00 25.00 1000.00 USD ``` The columns are:

available	amount available for orders

order\_id	Order ID
proc\_id	Processing ID
created\_at	Order creation time (UTC)
status	Order status: ok, error, pending
type	Order type
amount\_brutto	Amount charged including VAT. If VAT is not deducted then it has same value as amount\_netto.
amount\_netto	Amount charged excluding VAT.
currency	Currency if amount is non-zero; empty if amount is zero.
identifier	Domain or other object name that is affected by the order

Positive amounts are amounts ***paid***, i.e. ***deducted*** from your balance. Negative amounts are amounts ***received***, i.e. ***added*** to your balance. This usually happens if you get a refund. If `status` is not `ok`, then the amount is neither added or deducted - it is just a reference to the cost of the order.

If `show-all=false` (the default) then only orders processed within last 3 years are visible. If `show-all=true` then only orders from last 90 days are visible. Period covered by `after`/`before` parameters may not be longer than 90 days. The period is enforced *silently*, you will get no warning - just orders within 90 days, so if there are none you will see empty response. Empty (no rows) output means that there are no orders matching specified parameters are visible.

If you use ranged search by `order-id` or `proc-id` and do not limit search period using `after` and/or `before`, the maximum number of rows returned is 1000 (and is the default). It could be lowered by using `limit` parameter, but 1000 is the maximum anyway. However, if you do use `after` and/or `before` parameters, they will be applied `independently` - this means that if specified id range does not fit into specified time range, you will get no results.

Parameters `fqdn` and `fqdn-like` actually could be used not only for domain names but for other object identifies, like contact handles - it depends on operation.

**Please note that all returned data, including amounts charged, is for informational purposes only!** The sum of amounts may not exactly match the issued invoices due to possible adjustments related to discounts, manual processing, and other corrections that cannot be properly reflected in this list.

**Returns** List of registered domains and their expiration dates (one per line, separated by whitespace). If "showstatus" is present, the the list will be with three columns, the last one showing domain status (like "lock,autorenew" etc - comma separated). **Example:** `https://dmapi.joker.com/request/query-domain-list?pattern=a*&showstatus=1&auth-sid=` ## domain-register **Requires (mandatory)**

domain	Domain name to register
period	Registration period in months (not in years!)
status	Set domain status (only "production" is accepted so far)

privacy	basic\|pro\|none - adds whois privacy subscription to domain order, see also Whois Privacy Services
max-price	maximum price user is willing to pay for a domain registration, renewal or transfer. If provided, it must be a number (fractions allowed) above 0. If not provided and domain has non-standard pricing, or if max-price is lower than actual domain price at the moment of registration, the request will fail. If max-price is higher than the actual domain price, then only the actual price will be deducted

This request allows to **register** a domain. You must have **registered contacts** (handles) to be able to register a domain.(=> contact-create, query-contact-list) **Important:** Please note that the registration period is in **months, not years**. In most cases, this number is a **multiple of 12**. **Example:** `https://dmapi.joker.com/request/domain-register?domain=example.com&period=12&status=production&owner-c=COCO-4711&billing-c=COCO-4712&admin-c=COCO-4712&tech-c=COCO-4712&ns-list=a.ns.joker.com,b.ns.joker.com,c.ns.joker.com&auth-sid=` ## domain-renew **Requires (mandatory)**

domain	domain name to renew
period	renewal period in months (not in years!)
expyear	the wanted expiration year (e.g. '2014')

**Accepts (optional)**

*privacy*

basic|pro|none|keep - adds whois privacy subscription to domain renewal

none: explicitly do a renew without privacy services, even if currently privacy is enabled keep: renew with the same level of privacy service which is currently active for the domain see also Whois Privacy Services

*max-price*

maximum price user is willing to pay for a domain registration, renewal or transfer. If provided, it must be a number (fractions allowed) above 0. If not provided and domain has non-standard pricing, or if *max-price* is lower than actual domain price at the moment of registration, the request will fail. If *max-price* is higher than the actual domain price, then only the actual price will be deducted

With this request you can renew the domain. Please be aware that all renewals are not refundable. "**expyear**" is a safety option which can be used **instead of "period"** to renew domain till specified year (not longer). If you use "period", and by mistake send the request more than once, domain will be renewed again, while with "expyear", it will not be renewed if it's expiration year is greater or equals to specified. **Only one of "period" or "expyear" may be used, but not both.** **Please note:** - registration period is in **months, not years**! In most cases, this number is a **multiple of 12**. - to prevent from unintended/errorneous multiple renewals, **a specific domain name can only be renewed once per 6 hours.** This means, if you want to renew a domain for 2 years, you should use a period of "24" - in case you want to renew using two requests with a period of "12", the 2nd request must not be sent before 6 hours after the 1st one. **Example:** ` https://dmapi.joker.com/request/domain-renew?domain=example.com&period=12&auth-sid=` ## domain-modify **Requires (mandatory)**

Value of "0" will remove DNSSEC, value of "1" will add DNSSEC (and ds-N parameters must be provided) ds-1 list of DNSSEC parameter sets (min. 2, max. 6) for DNSSEC enabled domains ds-2 for com/net/org/tv/cc each entry has format: ds-3 tag:alg:digest-type:digest ds-4 for de: ds-5 protocol:alg:flags:pubkey-base64 ds-6

With this request you can modify - contact handles - nameservers - DNSSEC parameters (for DNSSEC capable nameservers and TLDs supporting DNSSEC) Please only specify contact handles which you want to modify, all unspecified handles will be left as is. For DNSSEC, you will find more information [here](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Domain_Name_System_Security_Extensions) . **Example:**

If not provided and domain has non-standard pricing, or if max-price is lower than the actual domain price at the moment of registration, the request will fail. If max-price is higher than the actual domain price, then only the actual price will be deducted

With this request you can initiate a transfer of the domain from another registrar to Joker.com. You have to provide a valid **AUTH-ID** (you have to request this from the **current** provider of the domain). **Please note:** - please make sure, that there is no so-called 'registry lock' active for the domain to be transferred. Please verify, that the current registrar does not block the domain, resp. deactivates the blocking - the domain to be transferred must have been active for at least 60 days at the current registrar, otherwise the transfer may fail - the domain to be transferred must not be object of an active ICANN UDRP dispute procedure - the domain should have a remaining term of least 7 days, to ensure that the transfer succeeds within the time limits (a maximum of 5 days is granted to confirm or object a transfer). In case the domain has less than 7 days of remaining term, a successful transfer cannot be warranted. - this procedure will trigger email notifications to the owner and the admin contact of the domain to be transferred (this is following mandatory ICANN transfer provisions) **Example:**

`https://dmapi.joker.com/request/domain-transfer-in-reseller?domain=example.com&transfer-auth-id=abc123xyz&owner-c=COCO-4711&admin-c=COCO-4712&tech-c=COCO-4712&billing-c=COCO-4712&auth-sid=>`

whois-opt-out	0 or 1 currently only used for .tel domains; if set to 1, owner information will not be shown in whois
privacy	off or basic or pro (if available)
gdpr-opt-in	0 or 1 opt-in to display contact data which is normally redacted by GDPR

If an empty value is provided, then the property will be cleared, i.e. the default will be used. **Example:**

`https://dmapi.joker.com/request/domain-set-property?domain=example.com&pname=autorenew&pvalue=1&auth-sid=>`

## domain-get-property

## domain-transfer-control This request allows to retrieve status information for all pending transfers. Additionally, transfers can be cancelled, or the FOA email can be re-sent. **Parameters:** ``` action One of: list, show, resend-foa, cancel domain Domain name to control transfer of (ignored when action=list) ``` **action=*list*** When action=list, this request returns a list (columns are separated by tabs) of all currently pending transfers: ```

``` where <state> is one of (listed in "natural" transition order): ``` IN_DB PAYMENT_PREPARED PAYMENT_ACQUIRED PENDING_FOA_SENDING Joker.com could not parse the recipient of the FOA. Manual action from Joker.com is required and happens during office hours, thus in worst case it may take few days (during weekend or holidays). FOA_BEEN_SENT FOA is sent and Joker.com is waiting for owner's reaction. Owner has 5 days to react, thus the state may last up to 5 days. FOA_NACK FOA is rejected FOA_ACK FOA is accepted REGISTRY_REQUEST_SENT REGISTRY_REQUEST_RECEIVED_NOW_WAITING FOA had been accepted, transfer request is sent and the losing registrar has to release the domain. This state may take up to 5 days, we could do nothing to speed it up. While in this state, transfer may be cancelled by using "action=cancel". REGISTRY_CANCELATION_PENDING The user has requested cancel of domain transfer by using "action=cancel". DOMAIN_WITH_JOKER_PENDING_COMPLETE The domain is actually with Joker.com, but either we haven’t noticed yet (batch pending) or manual work is necessary. Please contact Joker.com if this state lasts longer than 1 hour. PAYMENT_COMMITTED TRANSFER_PROCESSED_SUCCESSFULLY ``` **action=*show*** When action=*show*, the status of a specified domain is returned like: ``` domain: example.com status: FOA_BEEN_SENT owner_email:

owner@example.com admin_email: admin@example.com transfer-id: 123456 ``` **action=*resend-foa*** When action=resend-foa, FOA will be resent (only possible in state FOA\_BEEN\_SENT). **action=*cancel*** When action=cancel, the (pending) transfer will be cancelled. **Returns** Status code is 1000 for successful request, or >= 2000 otherwise. **Example** ``` https://dmapi.joker.com/request/domain-transfer-control?domain=example.com&action=resend-foa ``` ## domain-check **Requires (mandatory)**

*domain*

domain name to check

**Accepts (optional)**

check-price	If provided, specifically check the price for: create, renew, transfer, restore
period	If provided, price will be calculated based on specified period. Period may be specified in years (values from 1 to 10) or in traditional for DMAPI months (>= 12, must be a multiple of 12).
language	Relevant only for IDN domains, specifies language as 2 letter (ISO 639.1) or 3 letter (ISO 639.2) code: [https://www.loc.gov/standards/iso639-2/php/code\_list.php](https://www.loc.gov/standards/iso639-2/php/code_list.php)

With this request you can **check if a domain is available for registration, and what type of domain pricing will be applied for different types of orders.** **Returns** one or more lines with key-value pairs as follows: **domain-status:** <status> <status> can be one of:

available	regular domain (non-premium) available for registration
premium	premium domain available for registration
unavailable	domain is not available for registration

If <status> is "unavailable", then domain-register request will fail, though domain-transfer-\* and domain-renew (if domain is with Joker.com) are possible, of course. **domain-status-reason:** <status-reason> Provides human-readable description why domain is unavailable for registration, like *blocked*, *reserved*, *registered* etc. May be absent if registry does not provide specific reason. Should not be parsed as value is registry dependent and could be virtually anything. **domain-class:** <class> Specifies price-class. Anything but "standard" is considered "premium", though some registries use "tier-1", "premium", "BBB" etc. Mostly a hint, values except "standard" should not be interpreted as they have no useful meaning and vary among registries. **domain-price-<type>:** <price> <currency> <period>y Reports domain price, where <type> will be value provided in check-price parameter, i.e. create, renew, transfer, restore. - <price> is the final price, i.e. amount that will be deducted from the user's account, considering all discounts, promos etc. - <currency> is a 3-letter currency code, serves only as information. - <period> is reported in years and suffixed by "y", like "5y", and it may be different from "period" parameter value (depends on registry), for instance when requested period is not available, too low or too high. The price reported is valid only for specified period, i.e. if price is 100 for 2 years it does not necessarily mean that price for 1 year is 50, thus it only makes sense to check price for the period which will be used verbatim in subsequent request of specified <type>. **domain-price-promo:** <start> <end> <start> and <end> are ISO timestamps in format like *2019-07-01T00:00:00.000Z* For domains that have promotional pricing, this provides start and end timestamps of promotional period. Usually its mere presence means that promo-pricing is in effect, but to be sure values have to be checked explicitly. **If "domain-status" returned "premium" or "domain-class" returned anything but "standard", then the parameter *max-price* must be present in register/transfer/renew requests.** Full response example (web.blog): ```     domain-status: unavailable

    domain-status-reason: blocked

    domain-class: standard

    domain-price-create: 8.21 USD 1y

    domain-price-promo: 2019-09-01T00:00:00.000Z 2019-12-31T23:59:59.000Z ``` **Example:** `https://dmapi.joker.com/request/domain-check?domain=example.com&auth-sid=`

With this request you can delete previously registered contacts **Example:** `https://dmapi.joker.com/request/contact-delete?handle=coco-4711&auth-sid=` # Nameservers ## query-ns-list **Accepts:**

pattern	pattern to match (against host name, like "ns.dom\*")
full	include IPs if non-zero (0 or 1)

** Returns:** List of registered name servers, one per line. If "full" is non-zero, then the list will include IP addresses, IPv4 (2nd column) and IPv6 (3rd column).

Zone (domain) name to fetch data from

**Accepts:**

include-defaults

If specified with value "1", the zone will always include default values (which are omitted otherwise)

**Returns:** Returns list of zone records. The format of zone is as follows (one record per line): ```

``` Where:

label	subdomain/redirection label, relative to current zone, or '@' (which means current zone name)
* type*	record type (A, AAAA, MX, CNAME, URL, MAILFW, TXT, NAPTR, DYNA, DYNAAAA, SRV, CAA)
* pri*	numeric value, meaningful only for types MX, NAPTR and SRV, must be 0 for all other types

* valid-from*	record is not valid before this time (UNIX timestamp) or 0
* valid-to*	record is not valid after this time (UNIX timestamp) or 0
parameters	record-specific parameter(s)

All values from "name" to "ttl" are mandatory for every record. <valid-to> and <valid-from> are not implemented yet, so usually are 0, and may be omitted if there are no other parameters required. <parameters(s)> are record dependent, used in NAPTR, MAILFW, FRAME and URL records. <ttl> must be at least 60 for all records except NAPTR and SVC, where it can be 0 (meaning: no caching). For MAILFW/URL/FRAME <ttl> is irrelevant and assumed to be 60 seconds (i.e., any change will be in effect within 60 seconds from zone change). <pri> preference value for MX records, priority/weight for SRV records and order/preference for NAPTR records. For any other record, the value must be 0. Examples of zone records: www A 0 127.0.0.1 86400 www AAAA 0 fec0::17 86400 @ MX 10 mail.example.com. 86400 redirect URL 0 [http://joker.com](https://joker.com//) 86400 Sets redirection from redirect.joker.com to [http://joker.com](https://joker.com//) (assuming that current zone is "joker.com"). frame FRAME 0 [http://joker.com](https://joker.com//) 86400 0 0 "Header: Frame-Forward" "head" "title" "body" Sets frame-based redirection similar to URL redirection. For FRAME record, extra parameters are as follows: - Extra HTTP headers. (newlines may be escaped as \\n) - Extra text placed in <head></head> section of generated HTML. - Title text (<title></title>) of generated HTML. - Body text (used for <noframes> section) username MAILFW 0 86400 0 0 1 This MAILFW records makes redirection of mail sent to (assuming that current zone name is "joker.com") to , extra parameter ("1") specifies that spam-filtering should be used. naptr NAPTR 10/100 replacement 86400 0 0 "flags" "service" "regex" This NAPTR record has order 10 and preference 100. Only one of "replacement" or "regex" may be specified, if "regex" is specified, "replacement" must be "." (without quotes), if "replacement" is specified, "regex" must be empty string. Quotes are mandatory for all extra parameters. For details please consult RFC 2915, or look here: [http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/NAPTR](http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/NAPTR) \_ldap.\_tcp SRV 10/100 ldap.example.com:389 60 This SRV record has priority 10, weight 100, target "ldap.example.com" and port "389" with TTL 60 seconds.

They have same meaning as corresponding "A" and "AAAA" records, except that their targets may be updated using Joker DynDNS service. To enable/disable DynDNS service, and to define username/password used to access it, the record format is as follows: $dyndns=yes:username:password username/password may not contain spaces or colon (":") characters. If "no" is specified instead of "yes", DynDNS will be turned off (i.e. DYN\* entries will have no effect). In case if there are any errors, zone modification will not be accepted. All errors will be reported for every erroneous line, so if there are more than one, you will be able to see all detected errors. ## dns-zone-put **Requires:**

domain	Zone (domain) name to store data to
zone	URL encoded zone data

**Returns:** Replace current zone for provided domain with specified value. Field "zone" will be parsed as multiline text (so usual line erminators are expected). **Warning: This request will overwrite current zone, i.e. all current ecords will be replaced by new records.** The format of zone is as follows (one record per line): ```

``` # Rights and Roles ## grants-list **Requires:**

*domain*

Full qualified domain name

**Accepts:**

*showkey*

Show invitation access key

Get a list of active and pending grants. Returns lines in the following format (space-separated): ``` invitation domain - - -

grant domain

``` **Where**:

<nr>	record number
<scope>	Grant/Invite id (used to uniquely identify records for revocation)
<key>	Invitation access key, present only when "showkey" is non-zero; it has meaning only for pending invitations, and always is "-" for grants
<domain-name>	domain name (identical to domain in request)
<role>	one of @admin/@billing/@tech/@creator
<inviter-username>	your username (owner of the domain)
<invitee-username>	username of invited user
<invitee-userid>	\[leave empty\] user-ID of invited user
<nick-name>	name or comment you want to assign to this role

## grants-invite **Request parameters:**

name	value	mandatory
domain	Full qualified domain name	yes
email	Email of user to be invited to accept a role for 'domain'	yes
role	Role offered (@admin/@billing/@tech/@creator)	yes
client-uid	receiving Joker.com user id as shown on Joker.com - also conforms to reseller-id	no
nick-name	Name or comment for this role/grant for later identification (defaults to email)	no

With this request you can assign 'Roles' (permissions) of domains to other Joker.com users. The special role "creator" is an equivalent to an **internal transfer** of that domain to another Joker.com user. In this case, the domain is **assigned** to the receiving account's portfolio, including all rights and permissions on this domain. There are two variants to use this functionality: If the **client-uid** (**Joker.com user account id**) is given, and the client-uid **matches** the **associated user's email address** in our system, the role is **applied immediately** - there will be no request for confirmation on the receiver's side. In case the client-uid is not given, but only the email address, the transaction has to be acknowledged by the receiving user. For this, he will get an email ('invitation'), containing a link and a key. Either the link has to be clicked, or the key has to be applied using Joker.com (=> Transfer). This can also be used for **users which do not yet have a Joker.com account**. Returns status only (ok or not). Email is sent if request was succesfull. ## grants-revoke **Requires:**

domain	full qualified domain name
role	Role to be revoked from domain (@admin/@billing/@tech/@creator)

domain	Domain name	Exactly one of those must be specified. Only objects registered with Joker.com may be queried.
contact	Contact handle
host	Nameserver

**Returns:** Information about specified object (similar to whois), in format "key: value". This request is **deprecated** - please use ' query-whois' instead. ## query-whois **Accepts:**

domain	Domain name	Exactly one of those must be specified. Only objects registered with Joker.com may be queried.
contact	Contact handle
host	Nameserver

**Returns**: Information about specified object (similar to whois), in the format "key: value". The difference to the *query-object* request is, that this request reflects actual (live) data in Joker.com database, while *query-object* may show data which not yet up-to-date. ## wa-email-list Lists all domains and owner emails **of domains from your portfolio** which are **pending** **whois (email) verification**. For Whois validation, the email address of the owner contact of a newly created, transfered or modifed gTLD has to be verified.This verification is done by sending an email to the owner contact, which contains a unique key in a link. When this link is clicked, the related email address is set to "validated". For full ICANN policy, please see [Whois-Validation](https://joker.com/goto/icann_ra_whois). **Requires:** Nothing **Returns**: ` email-addressdomain-nameverification-expiration-date` ``` email-addressdomain-nameverification-expiration-date ``` **Where**:

email-address	email address of the domain owner which is pending verification

## wa-email-details Returns email **verification status** and the **associated domain** for provided verification key (whois verification, email validation).If there is more than one domain using the email address to be verified, output will have one line per domain. For full ICANN policy, please see [Whois-Validation](https://joker.com/goto/icann_ra_whois). **Requires:** `key Verification key sent to owner by verification email` **Returns**: `statusemaildomain ` **Where**:

status	is 'verification', if 'key' is a valid verification key
email	email address 'key' has been sent to
domain	related domain

**Sample:**

`https://dmapi.joker.com/request/wa-email-details?key=&auth-sid=`

## wa-email-validate **Triggers a new email verification**. In case the original verification email got lost or did not succeed otherwise, this request will send a new email. The original key will be **automatically included**. This request returns special response header "Result", which will contain "ACK" if the validation request has been sent successfully, or "NACK" otherwise, e.g. if the email address is not in "verification pending" status, or already verified (whois verification, email validation). For full ICANN policy, please see [Whois-Validation](https://joker.com/goto/icann_ra_whois). **Requires:** ``` email Email address to send validation request to. This must be domain owner's email address. ``` **Returns**: ``` Result: ACK validation request has been sent

Result: NACK no validation request has been sent for this email

## wa-email-verify

**Set an email address to 'validated'** by using the correct key, and voting with 'yes'. This request returns a special response header "Result", which will contain "ACK" if the verification has been accepted or "NACK" otherwise, e.g. in case the key is not correct (whois verification, email validation). This is usefull e.g. in case you want to implement your own indivídual landing page for your customers. The URL for this landing page can be set in Joker.com's 'Reseller Settings'. For full ICANN policy, please see [Whois-Validation](https://joker.com/goto/icann_ra_whois). **Requires:** ``` key Verification key sent to owner by verification email

answer Answer to verification request - "yes" or "no" ``` If the answer is "yes", the verification status is set to "verified" and email is confirmed as valid, if the answer is "no", then verification status is set to "invalid". If there is no answer before verification deadline (normally 15 days), the status is also set to "invalid". **Returns**: ``` Result: ACK validation request has been successful

Result: NACK validation request has been rejected or failed

``` **Sample:**

` https://dmapi.joker.com/request/wa-email-verify?key=&answer=[yes|no]&auth-sid=`

## domain-privacy-order This request adds a subscription to Whois Privacy Services to an existing domain name. A summary of all privacy related DMAPI commands is also available at DMAPI Whois Privacy Services. **Requires (mandatory):**

domain	domain name to order privacy service for
privacy	basic\|pro

**Accepts (optional):**

period	renewal period in months (not in years!)
expyear	the wanted expiration year (e.g. '2016')

"**expyear**" is a safety option which can be used **instead of "period"** to order privacy until the specified year (not longer). If you use "period", and by mistake send the request more than once, the order would be executed again, while with "expyear", it will not be renewed if it's expiration year is greater or equals to the specified one. **Only one of "period" or "expyear" may be used, but not both.** If neither period nor expyear is provided, then privacy is ordered for the remaining domain lifetime, whatever it is.** **Important:** Please note that registration period is in **months, not years**! In most cases, this number is a **multiple of 12**. **Example:** ` https://dmapi.joker.com/request/domain-privacy-order?domain=example.com&privacy=pro&auth-sid=` This would order privacy service "pro" for the same period as the current term of the domain "example.com". ## cor-verify **Authorizes a 'Change of Registrant' (COR)** according to the ICANN IRTP-C policy as of 2016-12-01. Please find the full documentation of the process at Joker.com [here](https://joker.com/goto/resdocs), the original ICANN policy is available [here](https://joker.com/goto/icann_irtp). This request can be used if you did not setup a verification 'push' URL with our provided module (see link above), or you want to use the standard email procedure. This request returns special response header "Result", which will contain "ACK" if the authorization request has been sent successfully, or "NACK" otherwise, e.g. if the key sent does not match the transaction. **Requires:** ``` key authorization key (provided in COR confirmation request)

answer answer to confirm the COR - "yes" or "no"

``` If the answer is "yes", the change-of-registrant will be executed, if in case of "no", it will be rejected. Please also note the new flag 'lock-opt-out' in 'domain-owner-change' if you do **not** want to lock the domain after the COR for 60 days. **Returns**: ``` Result: ACK authorization key has been accepted

Result: NACK authorization key has not been accepted

``` **Sample:**

https://dmapi.joker.com/request/cor-verify?key=<authorization key sent by Joker.com>&answer=yes&auth-sid=<your-current-session-id>

## query-price-list **Returns** List of domain prices per action and year (separated by tab) in the currency of the reseller account.

type	Object type (currently `domain` but in the future it might be other kind of service).
operation	The kind of operation that the promo applies to (`create`, `renew`, `transfer`).
tld	The TLD that the promo price applies to.
currency	Price's currency (matches `currency` parameter).
vat	VAT rate (example: 0.19 means 19%); 0 if not applicable.
price	Netto price per year when promo is active.
standard\_price	Netto standard price per year, i.e. the regular price when promo is not active.
retail\_price	Netto retail price per year, i.e. the price without reseller's discount when promo is not active.
min\_period	Minimum number of years (create/renew/transfer) that the promo price could be applied to.
max\_period	Maximum number of years (create/renew/transfer) that the promo price could be applied to.
period\_type	One of `exact` or `flex`. `flex` means that the promo price is valid for any number of years between `min_period` and `max_period`. In this case the price is per year, i.e. will be applied for every year of registration. `exact` means that promo price is valid exactly for the period specified by `min_period`, in such cases `max_period` will be equivalent to `min_period`, and the price is for the number of years specified in `min_period`.
valid\_from	Promo start date & time (ISO format). Promo price is not valid before this date.
valid\_to	Promo end date & time (ISO format) Promo price is not valid after this date.

All prices are netto (without VAT). When `period_type` is `flex`, the price is per year, i.e. when you create/renew/transfer domain for more than one year the named price will be charged for *every* year*.* When `period_type` is `exact`, the price is applied to the number of years specified in `min_period`, i.e. *total price for the whole period*. Please pay attention in such cases, as there may be multiple rows with same TLD for this kind of price - one for specific number of years (check last 3 rows in the example above).

Please note that there is a full DMAPI based interface written in PHP available. It is free to download and modify, and could be [downloaded from Github](https://github.com/joker-registrar/rcp-reseller-api-demo/).

Please read more at section [Joker PHP client](https://joker.com/faq/books/reseller-documentation-en/page/the-jokercom-php-client "The Joker PHP Client").

The published examples in PHP are parts of this project and are stripped in terms of functionality and error handling. It is strongly recommended to use the complete code base from Sourceforge.

### List domains of a customer

```php $value) { $keyval = array(); if (preg_match("/^([^\s]+):\s+(.+)\s*$/", $value, $keyval)) { $arr[strtolower($keyval[1])] = $keyval[2]; } else { print "Header line not parseable - pattern does not match\nRaw header:\n$value"; } } } else { $arr = ""; print "Unidentified error\nRaw header:\n$header"; } return $arr; } //parses the reply from DMAPI into a header and body function parse_response($res) { $raw_arr = explode("\n\n", trim($res)); $arr_elements = count($raw_arr); if ($arr_elements > 0) { $temp["response_header"] = parse_response_header($raw_arr["0"]); $temp["response_body"] = $raw_arr["1"]; } else { print "Couldn't split the response into response header and response body\nRaw result:\n$res"; $temp = ""; } return $temp; } $response = ""; $authid = "none"; //first obtaining an Auth-ID $username = ""; $password = ""; $fields = "username=".urlencode($username)."&password=".urlencode($password); $result = execute_request("login", $fields, $authid); $result = parse_response($result); $authid = $result["response_header"]["auth-sid"]; if (!$authid) { print "no auth-id was obtained - probably due to wrong username or password"; exit; } //now asking for the domain list $pattern = "*"; $fields = "pattern=".urlencode($pattern); $result = execute_request("query-domain-list", $fields, $authid); $result = parse_response($result); print_r($result["response_header"]); print "< br /> "; print_r($result["response_body"]); ``` ## Python ### Introduction Python is easy to use with DMAPI. Our examples are tested with python 3 on Windows and Linux, but should work on all platforms. Running the Python example will look like: ``` $ ./dmapi-example.py Request-URL: https://dmapi.ote.joker.com/request/login Login: Status-Code: 0 Request-URL: https://dmapi.ote.joker.com/request/query-domain-list Domain List: Status-Code: 0 domain: another-privacy-test.com expiration_date: 2018-06-30 domain: another-privacy-test.net expiration_date: 2020-06-30 Request-URL: https://dmapi.ote.joker.com/request/logout Logout: Status-Code: 0 ``` ### Login and list your domains ```python #!/usr/bin/env python import requests dmapiURL = 'https://dmapi.ote.joker.com' dmapiUser = 'username' dmapiPassword = 'password' def main(): loginResponse = login(dmapiUser,dmapiPassword) print("Login: Status-Code:", loginResponse.header['Status-Code']) if loginResponse.header['Status-Code'] !='0': print(loginResponse.header['Status-Text']) return sessionId = loginResponse.header['Auth-Sid']; print("") domainResponse = domainList(sessionId,1,5) print("Domain List: Status-Code:", domainResponse.header['Status-Code']) print("") domains = domainResponse.resultListWithNames() for domain in domains: for key, value in domain.items(): print(" %s: %s" % (key, value)) print("") logoutResponse = logout(sessionId) print("Logout: Status-Code:", logoutResponse.header['Status-Code']) # implement dmapi commands as functions def login(username,password): parameters = { 'username': username, 'password': password } message = sendCommand('login', parameters) return message; def logout(sessionId): parameters = { 'auth-sid': sessionId } message = sendCommand('logout', parameters) return message; def domainList(sessionId, list_from=1, list_to=""): parameters = { 'auth-sid': sessionId , 'from': list_from, 'to': list_to } message = sendCommand('query-domain-list', parameters) return message; # general dmapi command call def sendCommand(command,parameter={}): try: url = dmapiURL+'/request/'+command print("Request-URL: ", url) response = requests.get(url, params=parameter) # print URL with parameters for debugging purposes # print("Request-URL: ", response.url) if response.status_code != requests.codes.ok: raise CommandError("Command Failed!

This example code logs into the Joker.com system using DMAPI requests. It provides a domain listing, whois lookup and "Email verification". This has been tested using Visual Studio 2008 and 2010, but should work with any version, and also with free Visual Studio Express and .NET versions from 3.5 onwards. Please find the source code as an attachment below. We also provide this as a windows binary to try without the need of building it before. In case you run Windows 10 with "Smartscreen", you have to click on "more information" to execute this, since this binray of course is not signed by a "manufacturer"... This is how this will look like: ![C#/.NEt DMAPI Example](https://joker.com/faq/images/Image/C_sharp_DMAPI_Example.png)
