`GET https://api.deepinfo.com/v1/lookup/whois?domain=nic.arpa`

The raw WHOIS record of nic.arpa from the .arpa registry; Deepinfo returned no parsed record.

Example 56 of 992 in **Generic** · [Domain WHOIS Examples by TLD](/reference/lookup/domain-whois/examples/) · endpoint: [Domain WHOIS](/reference/lookup/domain-whois/)

Tags: `tld` `.arpa` · `type` `generic`

`.arpa` is a generic top-level domain.

The example requests the WHOIS record of `nic.arpa`, the registry's own domain by convention, so `raw` shows the `.arpa` registry's WHOIS format, as the WHOIS server returned it. The registry answered, but Deepinfo returned no parsed record for this answer: `parsed` is `null` and `parse_code` is 13001.
