Connect Namecheap

TenantCore supports direct Namecheap DNS automation, but Namecheap restricts API access to eligible accounts.

Namecheap API eligibility

At the time TenantCore added the integration, Namecheap required an account to meet at least one of these conditions:
  • $50 or more account balance
  • 20 or more domains
  • $50 or more in purchases within the previous 2 years
Namecheap can change its requirements independently of TenantCore. If your account is not eligible for Namecheap API access, use TenantCore’s manual DNS workflow instead.

Before you begin

Make sure:
  • Namecheap API access is enabled for your account
  • the domain is managed through the Namecheap account you are connecting
  • any IP allowlisting required by Namecheap is satisfied
  • your TenantCore plan includes Automatic DNS

Connect Namecheap

  1. Open the DNS-provider connection area.
  2. Choose Namecheap.
  3. Enter the credentials TenantCore requests.
  4. Save the connection.
  5. Run the provider test.
TenantCore can also surface Namecheap eligibility/connection state where available.

Start Automatic DNS

Once the connection is healthy:
  1. add the domain to TenantCore
  2. open its DNS workflow
  3. choose Automatic DNS
  4. start provisioning

If Namecheap automation is unavailable

Do not block the domain setup. Open the manual DNS workflow and publish the TenantCore-provided Microsoft 365 records yourself.
