description: Learn how the domain watchlist works, enabling users to monitor domains and receive updates on changes.

import {Steps} from '@astrojs/starlight/components';

A Watchlist is a list of domain names, triggers and possibly an API connector. They allow you to follow the life of the
listed domain names and send you a notification when a change has been detected.

If a domain has expired and a connector is linked to the Watchlist, then an order attempt will be made though the
Connector provider's API.

:::note
If the same domain name is present on several Watchlists, on the same principle as the race condition, it is not
possible to predict in advance which user will win the domain name. The choice is left to chance...

## Limitations

Depending on the instance configuration, there are several limitations to frame user behavior.
