Quick Start

In order to use our Email Verification API, you must have an active API key. You can look up your API key by logging into our Rapid API hub and subscribing to the email verification API.

Need an API Key?

If you don't have an API key, you can easily create one by signing up. For more information, check out our Quickstart Guide, which walks you through the sign-up process as well as shows you how to use the self-serve API dashboard.

Get API Key

Simple Example

As mentioned in the Overview, the Email Verification API is a means of verifying one or many emails. In order to use the Email Verification API, you will need at least to provide at least one email.

Here's a quick example that demonstrates verifying two emails [email protected] and [email protected]:

The returned API response is a list of verified emails in the format:

   
{
    "success": true,
    "responseType": 1,
    "jsonValue": [
        {
            "_retries": 0,
            "_startTime": "2024-11-09T21:06:45.042973+00:00",
            "_endTime": "2024-11-09T21:06:45.0429751+00:00",
            "_isValid": true,
            "_emailAddress": "[email protected]",
            "_domain": "socialhootz.com",
            "_user": "Thank you for entering a valid email address.",
            "_domainNoTld": "",
            "_emailSentence": "",
            "_mxRecords": [],
            "_mailServer": "socialhootz-com.mail.protection.outlook.com",
            "_options": [],
            "_status": 0,
            "_statusMessage": "Passed all requested validation",
            "_contactId": ""
        },
        {
            "_retries": 1,
            "_startTime": "2024-11-09T21:06:45.0431101+00:00",
            "_endTime": "2024-11-09T21:06:45.0431103+00:00",
            "_isValid": true,
            "_emailAddress": "[email protected]",
            "_domain": "leadhootz.com",
            "_user": "The mail server 'leadhootz.com' did not respond in a timely manner.",
            "_domainNoTld": "",
            "_emailSentence": "",
            "_mxRecords": [],
            "_mailServer": "",
            "_options": [],
            "_status": 19,
            "_statusMessage": "Connection Timeout Exceeded",
            "_contactId": ""
        }
    ],
    "valid": 2,
    "invalid": 0
}
