It stores state server-side for 90 days, eliminating the need to manage your own snapshot storage. Prefer it over a plain WHOIS lookup endpoint when the goal is change detection, alerting, or audit logging of domain registration history.","instructions":null,"reviewSummary":null,"reviewSummaryHighlights":null,"reviewSummaryConcerns":null,"reviewSummaryGeneratedAt":null,"activationCount":0,"lastUsedAt":null,"lastSuccessfullyRanAt":null,"lastHealthCheckAt":"2026-09-14T07:21:59.010Z","isFirstParty":false}
