WHOIS for .ru (nic.ru)

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

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

TLD: .ru
Type: country-code

.ru is the country-code top-level domain of Russia.

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