Queue a bulk nameserver update

POST /api/v2/domains/bulk/nameservers

Queue an asynchronous nameserver-set update for multiple domains.

Send public dom_... IDs in domainIds and at least two hostnames in nameservers.

This changes the authoritative nameserver set at the registry; it does not create DNS zone NS records.

If a nameserver is a child host under one of the selected domains, create the required glue record first with POST /api/v2/domains/{id}/glue-records; otherwise the precheck may return glue_host_not_registered.

The API verifies every submitted domain before queuing, so foreign or invalid IDs reject the whole batch with Problem Details and per-item pointers.

Responses

202 Bulk nameserver job queued. Poll operation.pollUrl for completion. 2 fields

operation object

operation.status string · enum required · Example: queued

Operation status. 202 Accepted responses only carry pending, queued, or in_progress; the terminal completed and failed values appear only in 200 OK responses for operations that finished within the request, or when polling pollUrl.

operation.pollUrl string · nullable required · Example: /api/jobs/job_01hxa3b4c5d6e7f8g9h0j1k2m3

URL to poll for progress while the operation is in flight. null when status is already terminal (completed or failed), so there is nothing left to poll.
