## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to programmatically inspect a domain's DNS zone authority — specifically the SOA record and refresh timers — as part of email infrastructure setup, troubleshooting, or auditing workflows. Prefer this over general DNS tools when you want a lightweight, paid-per-call API that returns structured SOA data for a single domain.

## Known failure modes

- Domain does not exist or has no SOA record — returns empty or error response
- Invalid domain format in input — validation error
- DNS resolution timeout — transient network error
- Non-public or internal domain provided — may not resolve
