Read from the source code; the running server may differ. Descriptions are the server’s own words; hidden characters are shown as [U+…].

  • check_connection

    Verify the Namecheap API connection and credentials. Returns the account balance summary — a lightweight call that confirms the API user, key, and IP whitelist are all working.

  • check_domains

    Check availability (and premium pricing) for one or more domains. Max 50 per call.

  • get_dns_hosts

    Get all DNS host records (A, AAAA, CNAME, MX, TXT, URL, etc.) for a domain.

  • get_domain_contacts

    Get the Registrant, Tech, Admin, and AuxBilling contact details for a domain.

  • get_domain_info

    Get detailed info for one domain: status, created/expiry dates, WhoisGuard, DNS provider, and modification rights.

  • get_email_forwarding

    Get email forwarding settings (mailbox → forward-to) for a domain.

  • get_nameservers

    Get the nameservers associated with a domain, and whether it uses Namecheap's default DNS.

  • get_pricing

    Get Namecheap pricing for a product type (e.g. DOMAIN register/renew/transfer). Cache results — this is a heavy endpoint.

  • get_registrar_lock

    Get the registrar lock status for a domain.

  • list_domains

    List domains in the account, with creation/expiry dates, lock status, auto-renew, and WhoisGuard status. Supports paging and search.

  • list_ssl_certificates

    List SSL certificates in the account, with type, host name, status, and expiry.

  • set_custom_nameservers

    Point a domain at custom nameservers. NOTE: Namecheap host records, URL/email forwarding stop working while custom nameservers are in use.

  • set_default_dns

    Switch a domain to Namecheap's default (BasicDNS) nameservers. Required for Namecheap host records, URL/email forwarding.

  • set_dns_hosts

    Replace ALL DNS host records for a domain. WARNING: this is destructive — Namecheap deletes any record not included here, so you must pass the COMPLETE desired record set (call get_dns_hosts first, merge your changes, then send everything). Switches the domain to Namecheap DNS if needed.

  • set_email_forwarding

    Set email forwarding rules for a domain. Replaces the full forwarding set (pass all rules you want to keep).

  • set_registrar_lock

    Lock or unlock a domain at the registrar (theft protection). Unlock before initiating an outbound transfer.
