- **Full Actor documentation**: https://apify.com/deriverge/domain-whois-dns-lookup.md

##### 2026-10-11

*Fixes*

- `.no` domains no longer query Norid. Its RDAP server blocks automated clients and its WHOIS terms forbid commercial use, so `.no` rows keep their DNS records, say why registry data is missing in `notes`, and are not charged for the registry part.
- Subdomains no longer come from crt.sh, whose robots.txt asks automated clients not to query it. They come from the subdomain.center index, plus certificate transparency logs through the Cert Spotter API when the run can search them; the **Subdomains** option has the shorter name.
- For `.at` domains the registrar name no longer ends with the nic.at link in brackets.
- Changes-only mode no longer reports a domain as changed when DNS or the registry lists the same records, name servers or statuses in a different order. DNS records are returned sorted, and MX servers with the same priority by name.

##### 2026-09-30

*Fixes*

- In changes-only mode, a domain the run did not return because it reached **Maximum rows** or the spending limit keeps its previous values in the snapshot, so its change is reported in the next run. Before, the new values were saved and the change was lost.

##### 2026-09-28

*Changes*

- `domains` is also accepted as `domain`, `url`, `urls`, `website`, `websites`, `host`, `hosts` or `startUrls`, which suits AI agents and scripts that send one of those names.

##### 2026-09-27

*Changes*

- The watch field is now called `watchName`. The old name `watchKey` is still read.

##### 2026-09-24
