Use the Domain Tools XML API to check the availability of a list of domain names.


1. Create a Domain Tools account.

2. Generate a Partner ID and API Key.

3. Plan your Bulk Check query.

For details on the format of the query URL visit the following link:
http://xml-api.domaintools.com/api23.html#bulk_check

NOTE: provide your own IP address in the customer_ip variable.


4. Login to your wsscheduler.com account (or create a new account if you do not have one).
5. Create a job/task to regularly perform your WHOIS query. Place the query URL in the Execute URL field. To avoid abusing the Domain Tools API consider setting the frequency to monthly.

6. Have the results sent to your email account.

Here is an example of the result set.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?> <whoisapi> <application> <appname>bulk_check</appname> <version>2</version> <partner>partnername</partner> <key>12345-12345-12345-12345-12345</key> <customer_ip>000.000.000.000</customer_ip> </application> <request> </request> <response> <extn>COMNETORGINFOBIZUS</extn> <records_returned>1</records_returned> <d> <id>1</id> <n>wsscheduler</n> <s>wqqqqq</s> </d> </response> </whoisapi>
