Response
Returns a hash map containing domain name availability status for the requested TLDs:
- 
available - domain name available for registration
 
- 
regthroughus - domain name currently registered through the Registrar whose connection is being used to check the availability of the domain name
 
- 
regthroughothers - domain name currently registered through a Registrar other than the one whose connection is being used to check the availability of the domain name. If you wish to manage such a domain name through your Reseller / Registrar Account, you may pass a Domain Transfer API call. See details
 
- 
unknown - returned, if for some reason, the Registry connections are not available. You should ideally re-check the domain name availability after some time.
	
Note
In case of .CA TLD, domain name availability can be checked for a maximum of 15 strings in one API call. Including more than 15 strings in an API call will return the status as unknown for all the strings.
