Domain WHOIS Examples by TLD · Example 72 of 231 in Country-Code

WHOIS for .fr (nic.fr)

GEThttps://api.deepinfo.com/v1/lookup/whois

The WHOIS record of nic.fr, in the .fr registry's format.

TLD: .fr
Type: country-code

.fr is the country-code top-level domain of France.

The example requests the WHOIS record of nic.fr, the registry's own domain by convention, so the response shows the .fr registry's WHOIS format: compare raw, the text as the WHOIS server returned it, with parsed, the same record in Deepinfo's fields.
