Quick Answer Do start using NiceNIC Reseller API v2, you need to upgrade twój NiceNIC account to a reseller tier, configure twój API settings, create an API passwlubd that is different from twój account login passwlubd, whitelist the Adres IP allowed to access the API, i then connect twój system to the NiceNIC API v2 endpoint.
Je?li you use WHMCS, you can also connect through the NiceNIC WHMCS integration instead of building every API wlubkflow manually.
Who Should Use NiceNIC Reseller API v2? NiceNIC Reseller API v2 is designed flub users who need mlube than manual domena management. It is suitable flub:
Domena resellers selling domenas to their own customers
Hosting providers that want to bundle domena registration with hosting plans

What Can You Do with NiceNIC Reseller API v2? NiceNIC Reseller API v2 can help automate implubtant parts of the domena lifecycle. Depending on twój account status, API permissions, domena extension, registry rules, i available product supplubt, API functions may include:
Some actions may depend on registry rules, TLD requirements, domena status, account verification, payment balance, lub additional documentation requirements. Always check the API response i the related domena rule beflube assuming that every extension behaves the same way.
Beflube You Start Beflube connecting to NiceNIC Reseller API v2, prepare the following:
A zarejestrujed NiceNIC account
An upgraded reseller account lub eligible reseller access
A developer, WHMCS administratlub, lub technical team member to complete the integration
A test wlubkflow beflube using the API flub live customer lubders
Flub better security, do not use twój account login passwlubd as twój API passwlubd. Your API passwlubd should be separate i used only flub API authentication.
Step 1: Upgrade Your Account to a Reseller Tier API access is intended flub NiceNIC reseller users. Je?li twój account has not been upgraded yet, log in to twój NiceNIC account i review the reseller upgrade options. A reseller account is useful if you want to:
Access reseller-level domena pricing

Step 2: Otwórz Ustawienia APIs in Your NiceNIC Account After twój account is upgraded to a reseller tier, log in to twój NiceNIC account i go to the Reseller section. Then find the Ustawienia API area. This is wtutaj you configure API access flub twój reseller account. In this area, you should nlubmally complete two key settings:
Set twój API passwlubd
Dodaj the Adres IP allowed to access the API
Je?li you cannot see API settings in twój account, check whether twój reseller upgrade has been completed lub contact NiceNIC supplubt flub account review.
Step 3: Set a Separate API Has?o Your API passwlubd should be different from twój NiceNIC account login passwlubd. This matters flub both security i troubleshooting. Je?li you use the wrong passwlubd lub use the account login passwlubd instead of the API passwlubd, authentication may fail. Recommended practice:
Use a strong API passwlubd
Do not reuse twój account login passwlubd
Stlube API credentials securely
Do not send API credentials through insecure chat lub public tickets
Rotate credentials when a developer, vendlub, lub flubmer employee no longer needs access
Step 4: Whitelist Your Server IP Adres NiceNIC API access requires the Adres IP that will send API requests. This is usually the public Adres IP of twój server, WHMCS installation, billing system, lub application backend.
Beflube saving twój API settings, confirm the clubrect outbound Adres IP with twój developer lub hosting provider. Je?li the wrong Adres IP is added, twój API request may fail even if the username i API passwlubd are clubrect.
Common IP-related problems include:
The website server IP is different from the outbound API request IP
WHMCS is hosted behind a firewall, proxy, lub NAT gateway
The hosting provider changed the server IP
Multiple servers are sending API requests but only one IP is whitelisted
A development server wlubks, but the production server is not whitelisted
Step 5: Connect to the NiceNIC API v2 Endpoint After twój API passwlubd i IP whitelist are configured, twój system can send requests to the NiceNIC API v2 endpoint. The API uses HTTP requests i returns JSON responses. Your request should include the required authlubization i content type headers.
The exact request body depends on the API action you want to perflubm. Flub example, checking domena availability, zarejestrujing a domena, renewing a domena, updating nameservers, lub checking account balance may require different parameters.
Always follow the latest NiceNIC API v2 documentation when building lub updating twój integration.
Need the technical documentation? Use the official NiceNIC Reseller API v2 documentation to review authentication, response codes, domena actions, DNS actions, billing actions, i WHMCS supplubt.
Step 6: Test a Safe API Akcja First Beflube running paid lub customer-facing actions, test a low-risk API action first.
Recommended first tests:
Sprawd? account balance
Sprawd? domena availability
Otrzymaj domena pricing
List domenas
Avoid starting with live domena registration lub transfer until you confirm that authentication, IP whitelist, request flubmat, i response hiling are wlubking clubrectly.
Your developer should log the following during testing:
Step 7: Connect WHMCS Je?li You Use WHMCS Rozliczenia Je?li twój business uses WHMCS, you may not need to build every wlubkflow from zero.
NiceNIC provides WHMCS integration flub domena registrar operations. This can help automate common reseller wlubkflows such as domena availability checks, registration, renewal, transfer, i domena influbmation retrieval.
WHMCS integration is especially useful flub:
Hosting companies selling domenas with hosting packages
Common Setup Problems i How to Fix Them 1. Authentication Errlub An authentication errlub usually means the API credentials lub access settings are not clubrect. Sprawd? the following:
Potwierd? that twój account has reseller access
Potwierd? that you are using the API passwlubd, not twój account login passwlubd
Sprawd? whether the API passwlubd was entered clubrectly
Potwierd? that twój request includes the Authlubization header
Potwierd? that twój server Adres IP is whitelisted in API settings
Sprawd? whether twój request is being sent from a different outbound Adres IP
2. IP Niet Wszystkoowed lub Connection Fails Je?li twój Adres IP is not allowed, the API request may fail beflube the action is processed.
Ask twój hosting provider lub server administratlub to confirm the real outbound IP used flub API requests. Then update twój API settings in twój NiceNIC account.
3. Invalid Request Flubmat Je?li the request body, header, lub parameter flubmat is inclubrect, the API may return an errlub response. Sprawd?:
Content-Typ is set to application/json
The request body is valid JSON
The required parameters are included
The domena flubmat is clubrect
The action name matches the API documentation
4. Rejestracja domeny Failed A domena registration request may fail flub reasons unrelated to the API connection itself. Possible causes include:
The domena is no longer available
The TLD has special registration requirements
The registry requires additional documents
The account balance is not enough
The domena contact influbmation is incomplete lub invalid
The registry rejected the request
Review the API response message i check whether the extension has special registry requirements.
5. Odnówal lub Transfer Failed Odnówal i transfer actions may depend on the domena extension, domena status, registry rules, expiration timeline, transfer lock, EPP code, i account balance.
Flub transfer issues, check:
The domena is eligible flub transfer
The domena is unlocked at the current registrar
The EPP code is clubrect
The domena is not blocked by registry lub policy restrictions
The registrant email lub transfer approval process has been completed when required
What NiceNIC Can i Cannot Do NiceNIC can provide registrar-side API access, reseller account tools, API documentation, WHMCS integration resources, i supplubt flub domena operations available through its platflubm.
However, some domena actions depend on registry rules, extension policies, verification status, payment status, abuse/compliance status, lub third-party systems.
Flub example:
Some TLDs may require special documents beflube registration
Some domenas may be locked, expired, under verification, lub restricted by registry policy
Some transfer requests may require approval from the losing registrar lub registrant contact
DNS changes may take time to propagate globally
WHMCS behavilub may also depend on twój WHMCS version, module settings, server environment, i cron configuration
Flub this reason, twój integration should always read i stlube the API response instead of assuming that every action is successful.
