API documentation

Get a live domain profile

Information collected from the domain at request time: DNS and IP, email settings (SPF, DMARC, DKIM), certificate, page title, technologies and versions, end-of-life software, open ports and other names on the certificate. `checks` tells whether each item is `found`, `not_found` or `not_checked`. Spends no credits; counts toward the per-minute limit.
