SetAuthcode

This command let you set an authorisation code for a .DE, .BE, .EU, and .NO. There are two different types of authinfos for .DE. Type 1 can only be set by the current provider. Type 2 can be set by any provider and will be sent per mail to the German owner or admin. Remember that the type 2 authinfo will be charged from your account! Authinfo type2 cannot be deleted! All authinfo expire 30 days after creation and should only be set if the domain is up for a transfer.

Note for .BE domains: For .BE, auth codes are always sent directly to the registrant by the registry and are not accessible to the registrar. Both action=set and action=delete have the same effect: a new auth code is requested at the registry and emailed to the registrant. There is no way to delete a .BE auth code.
