disable-domain-transfer-lock¶

Description¶

This operation removes the transfer lock on the domain (specifically the clientTransferProhibited status) to allow domain transfers. We recommend you refrain from performing this action unless you intend to transfer the domain to a different registrar. Successful submission returns an operation ID that you can use to track the progress and completion of the action. If the request is not completed successfully, the domain registrant will be notified by email.

Synopsis¶

  disable-domain-transfer-lock
--domain-name <value>
[--cli-input-json | --cli-input-yaml]
[--generate-cli-skeleton <value>]

Options¶

--domain-name (string)

The name of the domain that you want to remove the transfer lock for.

--cli-input-json | --cli-input-yaml (string) Reads arguments from the JSON string provided. The JSON string follows the format provided by --generate-cli-skeleton. If other arguments are provided on the command line, those values will override the JSON-provided values. It is not possible to pass arbitrary binary values using a JSON-provided value as the string will be taken literally. This may not be specified along with --cli-input-yaml.

--generate-cli-skeleton (string) Prints a JSON skeleton to standard output without sending an API request. If provided with no value or the value input, prints a sample input JSON that can be used as an argument for --cli-input-json. Similarly, if provided yaml-input it will print a sample input YAML that can be used with --cli-input-yaml. If provided with the value output, it validates the command inputs and returns a sample output JSON for that command. The generated JSON skeleton is not stable between versions of the AWS CLI and there are no backwards compatibility guarantees in the JSON skeleton generated.

See ‘aws help’ for descriptions of global parameters.

Examples¶

Note

To use the following examples, you must have the AWS CLI installed and configured. See the Getting started guide in the AWS CLI User Guide for more information.

Unless otherwise stated, all examples have unix-like quotation rules. These examples will need to be adapted to your terminal’s quoting rules. See Using quotation marks with strings in the AWS CLI User Guide .

To disable the transfer lock on a domain

The following disable-domain-transfer-lock command removes the transfer lock on the domain example.com so that the domain can be transferred to another registrar. This command changes the clientTransferProhibited status.

This command runs only in the us-east-1 Region. If your default region is set to us-east-1, you can omit the region parameter.

aws route53domains disable-domain-transfer-lock \
    --region us-east-1 \
    --domain-name example.com

Output:

{
    "OperationId": "3f28e0ac-126a-4113-9048-cc930example"
}

To confirm that the transfer lock has been changed, you can run get-domain-detail . When the transfer lock is disabled, the value of StatusList does not include clientTransferProhibited.

For more information about the transfer process, see Transferring a Domain from Amazon Route 53 to Another Registrar in the Amazon Route 53 Developer Guide.

Output¶

OperationId -> (string)

Identifier for tracking the progress of the request. To query the operation status, use GetOperationDetail .
