How to use Link Safety Check

Checks the domain of a URL against the CERT Polska Warning List of malicious domains, whose licence allows commercial use, and reports whether the domain or a parent domain is listed and the date of the list. A URL on no list is not proof it is safe: the list only holds domains that have already been reported, and it checks the domain, not the page.

Send these fields in the JSON body of the request.

The data object of a successful response carries these fields. Every response also lists its sources, the credits_charged and whether it was a cache_hit.

Each field is described in the API reference.

1 credit per URL checked (a check that cannot run is free).

You can try it without an account in the free tool. The free tools share a limit per visitor.

From code, send a POST request to https://YOUR_API_HOST/v1/link-safety with your API key.

1curl -X POST https://YOUR_API_HOST/v1/link-safety \
2  -H "Authorization: Bearer $LOOKVALID_API_KEY" \
3  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
4  -d '{"url":"https://example.com"}'

Full parameters and response fields are in the API reference. To run a list of values, use a bulk CSV job.
