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

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

Example 641 of 992 in **Generic** · [Domain WHOIS Examples by TLD](/reference/lookup/domain-whois/examples/) · endpoint: [Domain WHOIS](/reference/lookup/domain-whois/)

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

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

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