Connect domains you already own into a workspace. Up to 50 per call, all or nothing: one unusable name refuses the whole batch. A name your account already holds answers 409 domain_already_exists with the id that holds it; a name held elsewhere on the platform answers 409 domain_unavailable and never says by whom. Each domain reserves 50 mailbox slots, so an account past its plan answers 409 resource_quota_exceeded. An account that has not yet been allocated DNS capacity answers 409 account_not_provisioned; it is retryable and usually clears within a few minutes.
