CLI

AWS CLI

To register a domain

The following register-domain command registers a domain, retrieving all parameter values from a JSON-formatted file.

This command runs only in the us-east-1 Region. If your default region is set to us-east-1, you can omit the region parameter.

aws route53domains register-domain \
    --region us-east-1 \
    --cli-input-json file://register-domain.json

Contents of register-domain.json:

{
    "DomainName": "example.com",
    "DurationInYears": 1,
    "AutoRenew": true,
    "AdminContact": {
        "FirstName": "Martha",
        "LastName": "Rivera",
        "ContactType": "PERSON",
        "OrganizationName": "Example",
        "AddressLine1": "1 Main Street",
        "City": "Anytown",
        "State": "WA",
        "CountryCode": "US",
        "ZipCode": "98101",
        "PhoneNumber": "+1.8005551212",
        "Email": "[e-mail]"
    },
    "RegistrantContact": {
        "FirstName": "Li",
        "LastName": "Juan",
        "ContactType": "PERSON",
        "OrganizationName": "Example",
        "AddressLine1": "1 Main Street",
        "City": "Anytown",
        "State": "WA",
        "CountryCode": "US",
        "ZipCode": "98101",
        "PhoneNumber": "+1.8005551212",
        "Email": "[e-mail]"
    },
    "TechContact": {
        "FirstName": "Mateo",
        "LastName": "Jackson",
        "ContactType": "PERSON",
        "OrganizationName": "Example",
        "AddressLine1": "1 Main Street",
        "City": "Anytown",
        "State": "WA",
        "CountryCode": "US",
        "ZipCode": "98101",
        "PhoneNumber": "+1.8005551212",
        "Email": "[e-mail]"
    },
    "PrivacyProtectAdminContact": true,
    "PrivacyProtectRegistrantContact": true,
    "PrivacyProtectTechContact": true
}

Output:

{
    "OperationId": "b114c44a-9330-47d1-a6e8-a0b11example"
}

To confirm that the operation succeeded, you can run get-operation-detail. For more information, see get-operation-detail .

For more information, see Registering a New Domain in the Amazon Route 53 Developer Guide.

For information about which top-level domains (TLDs) require values for ExtraParams and what the valid values are, see ExtraParam in the Amazon Route 53 API Reference.
