You can use the merge operation to add multiple domain names to the same account. Domain names on the same account benefit by sharing a single set of contacts and addresses, allowing a single update to affect all of the domain names.
When you use the merge operation, be aware of the following:
You will receive confirmation from the Automaton if the operation is successful.
You will receive an error from the Automaton if the operation is unsuccessful. For help identifying and resolving an unsuccessful operation, see the error messages page.
When you use the merge operation, be aware of the following:
- This operation will be rejected if the 'account-name' of the domain names you wish to merge are different. Minor variations may be allowed.
