This section documents undocumented or unusual Namecheap API behaviors we've discovered:

### No WHOIS lookups or Marketplace data
423
+
424
+
The Namecheap API only operates on domains **in your account**. There is no API for:
425
+
- WHOIS lookups on arbitrary domains
426
+
- Checking if a domain is listed on [Namecheap Marketplace](https://www.namecheap.com/domains/marketplace/)
427
+
- Aftermarket pricing or availability
428
+
429
+
`domains.check()` tells you if a domain is **unregistered**, not if it's for sale by its owner.

### TTL "Automatic" = 1799 seconds

The Namecheap web interface displays TTL as **"Automatic"** when the value is exactly **1799 seconds**, but shows **"30 min"** when it's **1800 seconds**. This behavior is completely undocumented in their official API documentation.
