The DNS Lookup Service API provides a programmatic interface for performing Domain Name System (DNS) lookups, allowing developers to resolve domain names to their corresponding IP addresses or retrieve DNS records.
The API supports querying various types of DNS records, including A, AAAA, CNAME, MX, TXT, PTR, and NS records, among others, providing comprehensive DNS lookup capabilities.
The API interfaces with DNS servers to perform DNS resolution, sending queries and receiving responses according to the DNS protocol standards. It utilizes DNS caching and recursive querying to optimize performance and accuracy.
Yes, the API supports bulk DNS lookups, allowing developers to submit multiple domain names or DNS queries in a single request. This feature is useful for batch processing and efficient querying of large datasets.
Absolutely. The API supports reverse DNS lookups, enabling developers to resolve IP addresses to their corresponding domain names by querying PTR records.
The Lookup endpoint returns a list of DNS records associated with a specified domain. This includes various record types such as A, AAAA, NS, PTR, SRV, SOA, and CAA, providing comprehensive information about the domain's DNS configuration.
The response data includes fields such as "record_type" (indicating the type of DNS record), "value" (the corresponding IP address or data), and for SOA records, additional fields like "mname," "rname," "serial," "refresh," "retry," "expire," and "ttl" for detailed DNS management.
The response data is structured as a JSON array, where each object represents a DNS record. Each object contains key-value pairs that specify the record type and its associated data, allowing for easy parsing and integration into applications.
The Lookup endpoint primarily accepts a domain name as a parameter. Users can customize their requests by specifying the desired record type (e.g., A, AAAA, NS) to filter the results and retrieve only relevant DNS records.
Data accuracy is maintained through the use of reliable DNS servers and regular updates to the DNS records. The API employs caching mechanisms and adheres to DNS protocol standards to ensure that the information returned is current and precise.
Typical use cases include network monitoring, cybersecurity analysis, content filtering, geolocation targeting, and DNS management. Developers can leverage the API to automate DNS checks, investigate domains, or enhance user safety in online environments.
Users can utilize the returned data by integrating it into their applications for various functionalities, such as displaying DNS information, validating domain configurations, or implementing security measures based on DNS records.
If users receive partial or empty results, they should verify the domain name for accuracy and check if the requested record type exists. Additionally, they can implement error handling in their applications to manage such scenarios gracefully.

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.
