# Print the response
puts response

Error Handling

  response = client.execute({ domain: "myspace.com" })
  puts response["data"]
rescue APIVerve::Dnslookup::ValidationError => e
  puts "Validation error: #{e.errors.join(', ')}"

  puts "API error: #{e.message}"
  puts "Status code: #{e.status_code}"
