check domain name availability with httpapi php

In this post we explain you that how you can check domain name availability using httpapi.com api with php and returns domain name availability status for the requested TLDs. It requires GET HTTP Method. You need following parameters:

auth-userid => your reseller id 

api-key or auth-password => your api code / account password

domain-name => Array of Strings -  that you need to check the availability for

tlds => Array of Strings - TLDs for which the domain name availability needs to be checked

suggest-alternative (optional) => pass "true" if domain name suggestions are required. Default value is false. 

After api call, you will be get the below details in response:

Domain Availability Status (status)

available - domain name available for registration

regthroughus - domain name currently registered through the Registrar whose connection is being used to check the availability of the domain name

regthroughothers - domain name currently registered through a Registrar other than the one whose connection is being used to check the availability of the domain name. If you wish to manage such a domain name through     your Reseller / Registrar Account, you may pass a Domain Transfer API call

unknown - returned, if for some reason, the Registry connections are not available. You should ideally re-check the domain name availability after some time.
