Each request below is built from this extension’s catalogue entry. Replace the domain, the handles and any value in <angle brackets>.

POST /api/v1/domains/register with contact handles you created with POST /api/v1/contacts. To send contact details inline instead, use POST /api/v1/domains/register-with-contacts with the same tldAttributes.

tldAttributes lists every field this extension defines. Send the ones that apply: the table above says which are required, and some become required only for a particular value of another field.
