description: "# Spaceship API\n\n## Authentication\n\nSpaceship API uses a combination of API key and API secret for authentication.\n\n### API key setup\nYou can generate your API key and secret in [API Manager](https://www.spaceship.com/application/api-manager/). Use the \"New API key\" button to set up a new API key and follow the guide to get started.\nAfter the key setup has been successful, it should appear on the API Manager application page.\n\n### API key usage\nAs shown in the example below, API consumers shall pass a valid API key and a corresponding API secret in the X-API-Secret headers.\nYou do not need to encode the API key and the API secret.\n```bash\ncurl -X GET '/api/resource' \\\n-H 'X-Api-Secret: F3brvQluT4s8aDB7PeFBH6qKHfH2xTKTneCjZbq3z2w7rj2vV6n_zhSvvJoQ' \\\n-H 'X-Api-Key: JdIS8QYFMZpVKupJtdc3'\n```\n\n## Asynchronous Operations\n\nSome API operations may take an extended period to complete. For these long-running operations, the API returns an HTTP 202 Accepted response with a `spaceship-async-operationid` header containing a unique operation identifier.\n\n### How Async Operations Work\n\n1. **Initiate Operation**: When you make a request that requires asynchronous processing (e.g., domain registration, transfer operations), the API immediately returns a 202 response.\n\n2. **Receive Operation ID**: The response includes the `spaceship-async-operationid` header with a unique identifier for tracking the operation.\n\n3. **Poll for Status**: Use the operation ID to poll the `/v1/async-operations/{operationId}` endpoint to check the current status of your operation.\n\n4. **Operation States**: Async operations can have the following statuses:\n - `pending` - The operation is still in progress\n - `success` - The operation completed successfully\n - `failed` - The operation encountered an error and could not complete\n\n### Example Workflow\n\n```bash\n# Step 1: Initiate an async operation (e.g., domain registration)\ncurl -X POST '/api/v1/domains/example.com' \\\n-H 'X-Api-Secret: YOUR_SECRET' \\\n-H 'X-Api-Key: YOUR_KEY' \\\n-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \\\n-d '{\n \"autoRenew\": false,\n \"years\": 1,\n \"privacyProtection\": {\n \"level\": \"high\",\n \"userConsent\": true\n },\n \"contacts\": {\n \"registrant\": \"CONTACT_ID\",\n \"admin\": \"CONTACT_ID\",\n \"tech\": \"CONTACT_ID\",\n \"billing\": \"CONTACT_ID\"\n }\n}'\n\n# Response: 202 Accepted\n# Headers: spaceship-async-operationid: abc123xyz\n\n# Step 2: Check operation status\ncurl -X GET '/api/v1/async-operations/abc123xyz' \\\n-H 'X-Api-Secret: YOUR_SECRET' \\\n-H 'X-Api-Key: YOUR_KEY'\n\n# Response includes:\n# - status: \"pending\" | \"success\" | \"failed\"\n# - type: Operation type (e.g., \"domains_Create\")\n# - details: Additional information about the operation\n# - createdAt: Timestamp when operation was created\n# - modifiedAt: Timestamp of last status update\n```\n\n### Permissions \n\n - <b id=\"scopes/domains:read\">domains:read</b> - Read domain information and check configuration\n- <b id=\"scopes/domains:write\">domains:write</b> - Manage domains and domain settings\n- <b id=\"scopes/domains:transfer\">domains:transfer</b> - Transfer domains in and out\n- <b id=\"scopes/domains:billing\">domains:billing</b> - Manage domains billing operations\n- <b id=\"scopes/contacts:write\">contacts:write</b> - Save contact details\n- <b id=\"scopes/contacts:read\">contacts:read</b> - Read contact details\n- <b id=\"scopes/dnsrecords:write\">dnsrecords:write</b> - Write DNS resource records\n- <b id=\"scopes/dnsrecords:read\">dnsrecords:read</b> - Read DNS resource records\n- <b id=\"scopes/asyncoperations:read\">asyncoperations:read</b> - Read async operations details\n- <b id=\"scopes/sellerhub:read\">sellerhub:read</b> - Read SellerHub Domains\n- <b id=\"scopes/sellerhub:write\">sellerhub:write</b> - Write SellerHub Domains"
