# Domain WHOIS lookup via MCP for AI agents using IP2WHOIS API
This automation enables AI agents to retrieve WHOIS data about domains via a simple HTTP request by leveraging the MCP server and the external IP2WHOIS API. It translates incoming AI agent requests into API calls and returns structured information about domain ownership, registrar, and location.
## Who it´s for
- AI agent developers needing to add domain validation without manual coding.
- Cybersecurity analysts investigating phishing or suspicious websites.
- Automation engineers expanding AI capabilities with external API integrations.
## What the automation does
- Receives a request from an AI agent via the MCP trigger.
- Passes parameters (e.g., domain name) to an HTTP request node calling IP2WHOIS API.
- Retrieves response in JSON or XML format.
- Returns the data directly back to the AI agent.
- Ensures compatibility with MCP infrastructure for seamless AI integration.
## What´s included
- Ready-to-use n8n workflow.
- Logic for handling incoming requests via HTTP webhook.
- Integration with IP2WHOIS API and MCP Server.
- Basic text instructions for setup and adaptation.
## Requirements for setup
- n8n account with access to HTTP nodes.
- API key from IP2WHOIS.
- Configured MCP Server to receive AI agent requests.
## Benefits and outcomes
- Accelerates analysis of suspicious links through automated domain checks.
- Simplifies integration of external data into AI agents without coding.
- Enhances autonomy of AI systems in cybersecurity tasks.
- Lowers the barrier to implementing WHOIS lookups in automated workflows.
- Maintains response format flexibility (JSON/XML) for downstream processing.
