url = f"https://api.requiems.xyz/v1/tech/domain/{domain}"
headers = {"requiems-api-key": "YOUR_API_KEY"}

response = requests.get(url, headers=headers)
data = response.json()
print(data["data"]["available"], data["data"]["dns"]["a"])

const domain = 'example.com';
const response = await fetch(`https://api.requiems.xyz/v1/tech/domain/${domain}`, {
  headers: { 'requiems-api-key': 'YOUR_API_KEY' }
});

const data = await response.json();
