# Introduction

Register, transfer, renew, and manage domains programmatically as a Hostraha reseller.

The Hostraha Domain Reseller API lets you resell domains from your own systems. Once you order and activate the Domain Reseller module, you authenticate with your reseller credentials and drive the full domain lifecycle over HTTPS.

With the API you can:

- Check availability and get name suggestions across the supported TLDs.
- Order domains: register, transfer in, and renew.
- Manage contacts, nameservers (including child/glue records), and the registrar lock.
- Manage DNS records, email forwarding, and ID protection.
- Retrieve EPP codes, release domains for transfer out, and request deletion.
- Read your prepaid credit balance before you order.

## Base URL

All requests go to a single endpoint, with the action appended to the path:

```
https://portal.hostraha.com/modules/addons/DomainsReseller/api/index.php
```

For example, `GET /version` is a request to `.../index.php/version`.
