# domains_changeWHOISProfileForDomainV1

Change WHOIS contact profile for a domain. Repoints the given contact roles to a new WHOIS profile and submits the change to the registry. The profile currently assigned to those roles is resolved automatically; the request fails if the given roles are not all on the same profile today. Changing transfer sensitive fields on the owner contact starts an IRTP verification. The change is processed asynchronously. Use this endpoint to move a registered domain onto different contact information.

## Why domains_changeWHOISProfileForDomainV1 is rated Medium

This tool modifies domain registration contact information (WHOIS) and submits changes to the registry. It is a Write operation as it updates existing data, but carries high severity because altering domain ownership/contact info can affect domain control, trigger IRTP verification processes, and has regulatory implications. It is reversible in principle but has significant real-world consequences if misused.

From the tool's own definition: "Change WHOIS contact profile for a domain... Repoints the given contact roles to a new WHOIS profile and submits the change to the registry."
