I want to query ICANN domain lookup through Windows command (cmd.exe). I found the ICANN API https://opendata.icann.org/api/v2/console but after skimming through the documentation, I did not find anything about domain look ups.
I don't want to install any other application, and I hope there is a simple CURL I can execute to lookup the public contact information for a domain. If this is possible, could you include an example?

Seems some sites don't allow curl access. This one does, as of now.
curl "https://www.iana.org/whois?q=startpage.com"
or if you want to go through tor and have tor.exe running
curl --socks5-hostname localhost:9050 -ipv4 GET --url "https://www.iana.org/whois?q=startpage.com"
