Verimail

API Documentation

INTRODUCTION Verimail provides a REST based JSON API in the form of a stateless endpoint that any program or web browser can call by sending a standard HTTP request. Verimail will respond with a standard HTTP response carrying a JSON payload. This documentation describes the endpoint, its input/output parameters and authentication methods. AUTHENTICATION Verimail API uses API keys to authenticate requests. You can view and manage your API key in your control panel. Requests carrying your API key will deduct 1 credit from your balance, so be sure to keep your key secure! Do not share it in publicly accessible areas such as GitHub or client-side code. API requests without a valid API key will fail. https://api.verimail.io/v3/verify? key=712E59151C8B4D1DB593D43678ABBF47 ERRORS Verimail uses standard HTTP status codes to indicate the success or failure of a request. Successful requests will receive a 200 response code, while responses with a 40x or 500 indicate a failure. 400 Bad request Returned if a required input parameter is missing. 401 Unauthorized Returned if the key parameter is missing or not valid. 403 Forbiden Indicates that the key used is inactive.
