Registration
Run an RDAP lookup for any domain. The Registration Data Access Protocol returns structured JSON for registrar, status, events, entities, and DNSSEC. The modern replacement for WHOIS.
Apex, subdomain, or URL. We figure it out.
What you get
Registrar, entities, events, and status arrive as typed JSON, not free form text, so every value lands in the right place.
RDAP uses a fixed vocabulary of status and event types, which digga decodes into plain language.
digga finds the correct RDAP server for each TLD through the official IANA bootstrap registry.
Read the clean record or flip to the raw RDAP response to inspect every field the registry returned.
The Registration Data Access Protocol is the modern, JSON based successor to WHOIS, defined in RFC 7480 and related standards. Every registry runs an RDAP server, discoverable through the IANA bootstrap registry, that returns registration data as structured objects. Because the response is typed JSON rather than free form text, an RDAP lookup is far more reliable to parse and display than classic WHOIS.
WHOIS returns plain text that varies from registrar to registrar, which makes it fragile to read consistently. RDAP returns the same information as standardized JSON with defined field names, status values, and event types. It also supports secure transport and internationalization. RDAP is gradually replacing WHOIS across the registry world, so digga queries it first and only falls back to WHOIS when a registry has not adopted it yet.
There is no single RDAP server for every domain. Each TLD operator runs its own. digga looks up the right server in the IANA bootstrap registry, then queries it directly for the domain you entered. That is the same mechanism RDAP clients and the registry ecosystem rely on, so the data you see comes straight from the authoritative source.
A normalized record with the registrar and its IANA ID, registration and expiration events, domain status codes, nameservers, and DNSSEC state. Where the registry redacts contact details for privacy, digga shows what remains and lets you open the raw RDAP JSON to see the complete response.
