IMPORTANT: API Abuse
The OrderBox API is provided to you to
conduct normal business activities through your own interface(s). Any activity
using the API, that causes lossage or creates service degradation for other
users, is constituted as abuse by connectionLogic. A few examples
of API Abuse activities are stated below:
- Sending a huge number of Check Availability
commands for already registered domain names, repeatedly.
- Adding a large number of Sub-Resellers
and/or Customers who do not have any Orders.
Upon detection of API Abuse, connectionLogic would
take preventive action to mitigate abuse, as detailed below:
- If the number of calls exceeds beyond a
reasonable limit, your IP address will be temporarily blocked from accessing our servers, for a period of 24 hrs.
During this time, you will be unable to make any calls to our Servers using the API. This block will be automatically cleared after
24 hours and an email notification to that effect will be sent to
you. However repeated abuse will result in permanent blocking of the
Reseller account.
- If the number of simultaneous
connections from a single IP Address, increases beyond a certain number,
OrderBox would automatically drop these excessive connections of that
Reseller.
