#### [ CLI ]

**AWS CLI**  
**To get a list of suggested domain names**  
The following `get-domain-suggestions` command displays a list of suggested domain names based on the domain name `example.com`. The response includes only domain names that are available. This command runs only in the `us-east-1` Region. If your default region is set to `us-east-1`, you can omit the `region` parameter.  

```
aws route53domains get-domain-suggestions \
    --region us-east-1 \
    --domain-name example.com \
    --suggestion-count 10 \
    --only-available
```
Output:  

```
{
    "SuggestionsList": [
        {
            "DomainName": "egzaampal.com",
            "Availability": "AVAILABLE"
        },
        {
            "DomainName": "examplelaw.com",
