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)**

*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)**

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

**Example:** ## domain-transfer-get-auth-id **Requires**
*domain*domain name to get AUTH-ID for
Retrieves domain's **Auth-ID**, which is required when transfering domains to another registrar. This request is not real-time, i.e. you have to check detailed reply (use "result-retrieve") to get the Auth-ID. **Please note**: **Every request will generate a new Auth-ID**, thus rendering any previously requested Auth-ID invalid. **Example:** ## 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=`
