Code Idn
by Duo Data Utilities in Developer tools
Convert internationalised domain names between Unicode and ASCII punycode in either direction, label by label, and validate each label against IDNA2008: length, leading and trailing hyphens, the hyphen-hyphen rule at positions 3 and 4, disallowed code points and bidirectional rules. Returns both forms, the per-label breakdown and the first rule violated. Strict mode is IDNA2008 (UTS 46 non-transitional); it may reject names /v1/code/url displays.

GET https://api.duoleads.com/v1/code/idn?domain=b%C3%BCcher.exampleParameters
| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
domain | string | Yes | Domain name in Unicode or punycode form. |
strict | string | No | true (default) applies IDNA2008 strictly; false uses UTS 46 transitional (IDNA2003-compatible) processing, which maps e.g. ß to ss; current browsers and /v1/code/url use non-transitional processing, so its output can differ from them. One of: true, false. Default: "true". |
to | string | No | ascii, unicode or both (default). Validated only: the response always carries both forms. One of: ascii, unicode, both. Default: "both". |
