What it returns
Every field the extractor writes to its dataset, with its type, a written description and an example value.
| Field | Type | What it holds | Example |
|---|---|---|---|
| id | string | The domain, used as the row identity. | apify.com |
| domain | string | The domain as the registry writes it, lower-cased. | apify.com |
| registered | boolean | True when a registration record exists. **Null — not false — when RDAP had no record**, because that also happens for a TLD whose registry publishes no RDAP. | true |
| recordFound | boolean | Whether RDAP returned anything at all. | true |
| registrar | string | The registrar of record, read from the registrar entity's vCard. | Amazon Registrar, Inc. |
| registeredAt | string | Creation date from the registry. | 2009-06-02T17:14:10Z |
| expiresAt | string | Expiry date from the registry. | 2035-06-02T17:14:10Z |
| lastChangedAt | string | Last time the registration record changed — a transfer or status change moves this, not the creation date. | 2026-05-16T16:53:04Z |
| ageDays | number | Days since registration. Domain age is a standard trust signal: a week-old domain selling something is a different proposition from a decade-old one. | 6347.9 |
| daysUntilExpiry | number | Days remaining before expiry, positive for a future date. Negative means it has lapsed. | 3148.1 |
| isExpiringSoon | boolean | True when expiry is within 60 days — the usual registrar warning window, and the filter to schedule against. | false |
| statuses | string | EPP status flags, comma-separated: clientTransferProhibited, ok, pendingDelete and so on. | client transfer prohibited |
| nameservers | string | Nameservers, comma-separated. | ns-1225.awsdns-25.org, ns-449.awsdns-56.com |
| nameServerCount | number | How many nameservers are delegated. | 4 |
| note | string | Present only when the record is missing, and it says plainly that 'no record' does not mean 'available'. | RDAP returned no record. That can mean the domain is unregistered OR that its TLD registry publishes no RDAP — this row does not distinguish them. |
| rdapSource | string | The registry endpoint the bootstrap sent us to, so the answer can be checked. | https://rdap.verisign.com/com/v1/domain/apify.com |
| scrapedAt | string | When this run read the registry. | 2026-10-19T12:00:00Z |
