WHOIS for .pid (nic.pid)

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

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

TLD: .pid
Type: generic

.pid is a generic top-level domain.

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