docs(backend): clarify domain migration and deletion by rafaelrcamargo · Pull Request #9741 · clerk/javascript

rafaelrcamargo · 2026-09-11T23:28:42Z

Description

The domain API docs still describe satellite-only creation and deletion. Document the first custom-primary migration, retain the active-domain deletion restriction, and use domainId in both deletion methods so generated signatures match the supported flow. Existing calls and runtime behavior are unchanged.

Part of AIE-1691. Matches clerk/clerk_go#22073 and clerk/dashboard#10221.

Checklist

pnpm test runs as expected. Full suite not run; all 51 Typedoc tests passed.
pnpm build runs as expected. Build scoped to Typedoc packages and their dependencies; all passed.
(If applicable) JSDoc comments have been added or updated for any package exports
(If applicable) Documentation has been updated. Generated Typedoc output verified.
