• Live DNS Lookup: Fetch current A, AAAA, MX, NS, TXT, or CNAME records.
• Historical DNS Lookup: Uncover past adjustments to a domain's DNS structure.
• Reverse DNS Search: Uncover what domains resolve back to a targeted IP address.
• SSL Lookup: Analyze live SSL/TLS certificates and certificate trust chains.
• Subdomains Lookup: Discover and list all public subdomains linked to a domain.
• Domain Availability: Instantly verify whether a domain name is available for purchase.
• IP Geolocation: Trace geographical positioning variables (country, city, ASN) from an IP address.
• IP Reputation: Run advanced security assessment queries on IP addresses.
• Domain Reputation Lookup: Check domain reputation if a domain is being used in any sort of malware or phishing campaign.
• Typo Squatting Lookup Check domain typosquatting.

Bulk Operations

• Bulk WHOIS Lookup: Batch audit multiple domain registrants at once.
• Bulk Domain DNS Lookup: Execute massive batch transformations across a mixture of domains/IP addresses.
• Bulk Domain Availability Lookup: Perform scalable automated availability sweeps.
• Bulk IP Geolocation Lookup: Map arrays of network traffic coordinates in one call.
• Bulk IP Reputation Lookup: Fast-track incident response logs by batch scanning malicious assets.

Credentials

To authorize your node requests, you must obtain an API Key from the service provider.

Setting up the connection:

1. Log in or create an account via the WhoisFreaks Dashboard.
2. Copy your unique API Key generated inside your account space.
3. In n8n, create a new WhoisFreaks API credential block.
4. Paste your key into the API Key parameter space and hit save.

Compatibility

• Minimum n8n Version: 1.0.0
• Tested up through modern n8n deployment configurations (v1.x+).

Usage

When designing workflows with WhoisFreaks:

• Comma Separated Values: When managing bulk parameters (like Domain Names or IP Addresses), ensure your entities are split evenly using simple commas (e.g., google.com, n8n.io). The node splits and parses these queries internally for payload structuring.
• Response Formats: Most basic queries let you dynamically toggle output schemas between standard JSON or structured XML representations straight to node outputs.
