I'm trying, without any success, to add an alias to a secondary domain in my google apps for work using domain api.

In this article it's written: Domain aliases for secondary domains must be added via the Domains API

Using APIs Explorer I tried this query:

POST https://www.googleapis.com/admin/directory/v1/customer/my_customer/domains?key={YOUR_API_KEY}

{
 "domainName": "primarydomain.com",
 "domainAliases": [
  {
   "parentDomainName": "secondarydomain.com",
   "domainAliasName": "secondarydomainalias.it",
   "verified": false
  }
 ]
}

but I get the following error

Anyone with the same issue found a solution?

Edit: I re-read your question and my answer is changed as I see the problem - both your POST endpoint and data are incorrect.

The correct endpoint is https://www.googleapis.com/admin/directory/v1/customer/<customerId>/domainaliases

and the correct data is 

{
  "domainAliasName": secondarydomainalias.it,
  "parentDomainName": secondarydomain.com
}

You can try this here on the domain aliases insert page

You will need your domain's "customerId" to make these requests, get it by doing a get on a user in the domain.

  • tried listing existing primary and secondary domains and got this (shortened): `{ ... "domains": [ { ... "domainName": "primarydomain.com", "domainAliases": [ { ... "domainAliasName": "primarydomain.it", "parentDomainName": "primarydomain.com", ... } ], "isPrimary": true, ... }, { ... "domainName": "secondarydomain.com", "isPrimary": false, ... } ] }` – alder Feb 19 '16 at 15:21
  • same issue.The endpoint remains the same, POST https://www.googleapis.com/admin/directory/v1/customer//domains?key={YOUR_API_KEY} and I got the same error....any idea? – alder Feb 22 '16 at 11:31
  • The correct endpoint ends with "domainaliases" while you are using "domains". – Peter Feb 22 '16 at 21:20
  • Ok, understood. I was looking at the wrong webpage. Using the one you linked everything works fine. Thanks a lot! – alder Feb 23 '16 at 16:33
