URL Lookup is an API-based tool designed to retrieve the location of a specified URL. It serves users who need to determine the resolved location of a URL, providing a straightforward solution for this particular lookup task.
The service operates via a POST request to the provided endpoint and does not require an API key for initial trials, allowing users to test the functionality directly. To integrate the tool into applications, users must obtain an API key. URL Lookup supports responses in multiple data formats, including JSON, XML, and YAML, accommodating different integration needs. Code examples are available for cURL, Node, and Python, making it accessible for developers working in various environments.
The API is available online with a stated uptime SLA of 99.9%. Each call to the service consumes credits, with the rate specified as 5 credits per call. The tool offers real-time data and supports authentication via an x-api-key header. Its latency metrics are provided, indicating performance across different percentiles.
URL Lookup is part of a broader suite of domain data tools offered by APIVerve, but its specific function is to return the location of a given URL.
