List of main variables:

• $API_URL - HTTP API URL, which is available at the static address my.thehost.com.ua/manager/billmgr
• $LOGIN - Reseller login from your personal account
• $PASSWORD - Reseller password from your personal account

Getting an up-to-date list of domain names

HTTP Request:

https:// $API_URL ?func=domain&authinfo= $LOGIN : $PASSWORD &out=json

HTTP Response:

{
"elem": [
    {
        "id": "200",
        "name": "thedomain.com.ua",
        "account": "account (account name)",
        "account_id": "100",
        "expire": "2027-02-16",
        "autoperiod": "-",
        "domainstatus": "2"
    },
    {
        "id": "220",
        "name": "thedomain2.com.ua",
        "account": "account (account name)",
        "account_id": "100",
        "expire": "2022-02-16",
        "autoperiod": "-",
