GraphQL AccessALPHA

Access Domain Expiration through GraphQL to combine it with other API calls in a single request. Query only the domain expiration data you need with precise field selection, and orchestrate complex data fetching workflows.

Test Domain Expiration in the GraphQL Explorer to confirm availability and experiment with queries.

Credit Cost: Each API called in your GraphQL query consumes its standard credit cost.

GraphQL Endpoint
POST https://api.apiverve.com/v1/graphql
GraphQL Query Example
query {
  domainexpiration(
    input: {
      domain: "myspace.com"
    }
  ) {
    domain
    expirationDate
    daysToExpiration
    expirationStatus
    createdDate
    lastUpdatedDate
    daysSinceLastUpdate
    domainAgeDays
    domainAgeYears
  }
}

Note: Authentication is handled via the x-api-key header in your GraphQL request, not as a query parameter.

CORS Support

The Domain Expiration API accepts cross-origin requests from any origin, so it can be called directly from browser-based applications without a proxy. See CORS support →

Rate Limiting

Domain Expiration requests are throttled per minute on the Free plan and unthrottled on paid plans. Exceeding the limit returns 429 Too Many Requests; rate-limit usage is reported in the X-RateLimit-Limit, X-RateLimit-Remaining, and X-RateLimit-Reset response headers. See per-plan limits and best practices →

Error Codes

The Domain Expiration API uses standard HTTP status codes — 200 on success, 400 for invalid parameters, 401 for missing or invalid keys, 403 for insufficient credits, 429 for rate-limit exhaustion, and 500/503 for server-side issues. Each error response includes an X-Request-ID header you can quote when contacting support. See full error handling guide →

SDKs for Domain Expiration

Official Domain Expiration packages on npm, PyPI, NuGet, and JitPack — plus a Postman collection and an OpenAPI spec. See the SDK guide →

No-Code Integrations

Domain Expiration works with Zapier, Make, Pipedream, n8n, and Power Automate using the same API key. See setup guides →

How many credits does Domain Expiration cost?

What happens if I exceed my Domain Expiration credit limit?
