Updated enom module for .ca

Recommended Posts

CIRA is changing some of its regulation next month and enom is updating its API. One of the new features is the use of EPP codes, as well as something about terms & conditions. Are there plans to update the enom module to compensate for this?

This is today's update from eNom. I hope that their is a module update in the works here that will be available before the October 12th deadline.

 

 

What is changing with .CA

 

CIRA, the company that manages the .CA TLD is transitioning from the current manual management system to EPP, the same standard used by the most popular TLDs including .COM, .ORG and .US.

 

Transfers will use the automated EPP auth code system instead of the current manual process involving messages between CIRA and the registrant.

 

This means that transfers, registrations, and contact updates will be done faster and easier than ever before.

 

What this means for sub-resellers

 

There will be a few revisions to the API as a result of these changes. They are summarized below:

 

Resellers must display CIRA’s Terms and Agreement and have it approved by end users when they register .CA domain names.

Transfer commands will be modified to accept EPP keys for .CA domains.

Registrant updates can be made without doing a Trade and can be done without incurring extra charges. Registrants can now make these changes through your site; they no longer log into CIRA’s web site.

There is no need to inform your sub-reseller accounts, as we will be handling the communication where it pertains to our API.

 

If you are an Instant Reseller user, all changes will be implemented automatically on your Instant Reseller site and no action is required. We will notify sub-resellers of these changes on your behalf.

 

Timeline for implementation

 

9/8/2010: Updated API documentation detailing the changes will be available here (NOTE: you need to be logged in to see this page).

9/13/2010: Changes live on API test environment.

10/12/2010: Changes live on API production environment.
