# WHOIS Input Plugin
This plugin queries [WHOIS information][whois] for configured
domains and provides metrics such as expiration timestamps, registrar
details and domain status from e.g. [IANA][iana] or [ICANN][icann]
servers.
⭐ Telegraf v1.35.0
🏷️ network, web
💻 all
[whois]: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc3912
[icann]: https://lookup.icann.org/
[iana]: https://www.iana.org/whois
## Global configuration options <!-- @/docs/includes/plugin_config.md -->
In addition to the plugin-specific configuration settings, plugins support
additional global and plugin configuration settings. These settings are used to
modify metrics, tags, and field or create aliases and configure ordering, etc.
See the [CONFIGURATION.md][CONFIGURATION.md] for more details.
[CONFIGURATION.md]: ../../../docs/CONFIGURATION.md#plugins
## Configuration
```toml @sample.conf
# Reads whois data and expose as metrics
[[inputs.whois]]
## List of domains to query
domains = ["example.com", "influxdata.com"]
## Use Custom WHOIS server
# server = "whois.iana.org"
## Timeout for WHOIS queries
# timeout = "30s"
## Enable WHOIS referral chain query
# referral_chain_query = false
```
## Metrics
- whois
- tags:
- domain
- status (string)
- fields:
- creation_timestamp (int, seconds)
- dnssec_enabled (bool)
- error (string)
- expiration_timestamp (int, seconds)
- expiry (int, seconds) - Remaining time until the domain expires, in seconds.
This value can be **negative** if the domain is already expired.
`SELECT (expiry / 60 / 60 / 24) as "expiry_in_days"`
- registrar (string)
- registrant (string)
- updated_timestamp (int, seconds)
