Developer APIs

These API endpoints are specifically for developers who want to integrate their own apps or websites with data from Watch My Domains SED. They’re completely separate from the registrar API support built into the app.

So if you're a regular user or administrator of the software, you can safely ignore these, they’re not meant for day-to-day use or configuration.

Using RDAP instead of Whois

Registration Data Access Protocol (RDAP)

The Registration Data Access Protocol, or RDAP, has replaced the traditional port 43 Whois. ICANN no longer requires gTLD registries to provide a port 43 whois service.

How to Use RDAP instead of Whois

The Settings module allows you to configure supported TLDs to use RDAP instead of Whois. You can set the domain lookup sequence to 'Whois Only' or 'RDAP First' for each TLD. Please see the screen shots blow.
