The API utilizes DNS queries to fetch the DNS records associated with a given domain. It supports various record types such as A, CNAME, MX, and NS.
No, at the moment the API is focused on root domains.
The API supports a range of DNS record types, including but not limited to A (Address), CNAME (Canonical Name), MX (Mail Exchange), and NS (Name Server) records.
Depending on the API provider, rate limits may exist to prevent abuse. Developers should refer to the API documentation for specific details on rate limits and usage policies.
Security measures are often implemented in the API, but users should employ secure communication practices, such as using HTTPS, to protect data in transit.
The API returns a comprehensive list of DNS records associated with a domain, including record types such as A, AAAA, CNAME, MX, NS, and SOA. Each record provides specific details relevant to domain management.
The response data includes fields such as "record_type" (indicating the type of DNS record), "value" (the record's value), and for SOA records, additional fields like "mname," "rname," "serial," "refresh," "retry," "expire," and "ttl."
The response is structured as a JSON array, with each element representing a DNS record. Each record is an object containing relevant fields, making it easy to parse and utilize in applications.
The API provides detailed information about various DNS records, including IP addresses (A/AAAA), mail servers (MX), and name servers (NS). This data is essential for network diagnostics, domain health monitoring, and cybersecurity analysis.
Users can customize their requests by specifying the domain they wish to query. The API does not currently support additional parameters for filtering or modifying the response data.
The DNS Checker API retrieves data directly from DNS servers through standard DNS queries, ensuring that the information is accurate and up-to-date based on the current DNS configurations.
Data accuracy is maintained through real-time queries to authoritative DNS servers. The API reflects the most current DNS records, allowing users to rely on the information for critical applications.
Typical use cases include diagnosing network issues, monitoring domain health, conducting cybersecurity assessments, configuring web hosting, and ensuring compliance through DNS record auditing.
To obtain your API key, you first need to sign in to your account and subscribe to the API you want to use. Once subscribed, go to your Profile, open the Subscription section, and select the specific API. Your API key will be available there and can be used to authenticate your requests.
You can’t switch APIs during the free trial. If you subscribe to a different API, your trial will end and the new subscription will start as a paid plan.
If you don’t cancel before the 7th day, your free trial will end automatically and your subscription will switch to a paid plan under the same plan you originally subscribed to, meaning you will be charged and gain access to the API calls included in that plan.
The free trial ends when you reach 50 API requests or after 7 days, whichever comes first.
No, the free trial is available only once, so we recommend using it on the API that interests you the most. Most of our APIs offer a free trial, but some may not include this option.
Yes, we offer a 7-day free trial that allows you to make up to 50 API calls at no cost, so you can test our APIs without any commitment.
Zyla API Hub is like a big store for APIs, where you can find thousands of them all in one place. We also offer dedicated support and real-time monitoring of all APIs. Once you sign up, you can pick and choose which APIs you want to use. Just remember, each API needs its own subscription. But if you subscribe to multiple ones, you'll use the same key for all of them, making things easier for you.
