## Lifecycle

In calendar days. `—` means the registry does not publish the period.

| Period | Days | What happens |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Add grace | — | Deleting a new registration within this window is refunded. |
| Auto-renew grace | 20 | After expiry the registry renews automatically; a second renewal in this window is refused with `10020`. |
| Redemption | 30 | After deletion, `POST /api/v1/domains/restore` still works. |
| Deletion hold | — | After redemption, before the name is released to the public. Nothing can be done. |

## Extra fields (`tldAttributes`)

Send these as a flat key/value object named `tldAttributes` on register requests. See [Extra registry fields](https://www.domainnameapi.com/docs/domains/#extra-registry-fields-tldattributes).

## Ready-to-send requests

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

### Register

`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`](https://www.domainnameapi.com/docs/domains/register/#registering-with-contact-details) 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.

```json
{
  "domainName": "apiname.co.it",
  "period": 1,
  "nameServers": [
    "tr.apiname.com",
    "eu.apiname.com"
  ],
  "handles": [
    { "contactType": "Registrant", "handle": "D-174829301847" },
    { "contactType": "Admin", "handle": "D-174829301847" },
    { "contactType": "Tech", "handle": "D-174829301847" },
    { "contactType": "Billing", "handle": "D-174829301847" }
  ],
  "tldAttributes": {
    "X-IT-SECT6-PERSONAL-DATA-FOR-DIFFUSION": "<Accept Sect. 6 of registrar contract>",
    "X-IT-NATIONALITY": "HR",
    "X-IT-SECT3-LIABILITY": "<Accept Sect. 3 of registrar contract>",
    "X-IT-ENTITY-TYPE": "4",
    "X-IT-CONSENTFORPUBLISHING": "<Consent for Publishing>",
    "X-IT-SECT5-PERSONAL-DATA-FOR-REGISTRATION": "<Accept Sect. 5 of registrar contract>",
    "X-IT-PIN": "<Registrant Tax Code>",
    "X-IT-SECT7-EXPLICIT-ACCEPTANCE": "<Accept Sect. 7 of registrar contract>"
  }
}
```

### Renew

`POST /api/v1/domains/renew` — call `POST /api/v1/domains/renew/check` with the same body first. See [Renew a domain](https://www.domainnameapi.com/docs/domains/renew/).

```json
{
  "domainName": "apiname.co.it",
  "period": 1
}
```

### Transfer in

`POST /api/v1/domains/transfer`. This registry has no pre-transfer check, so call it directly. See [Transfer a domain in](https://www.domainnameapi.com/docs/domains/transfer/).

```json
{
  "domainName": "apiname.co.it",
  "authCode": "aB3!xY9-kL2pQ7",
  "period": 1
}
```
