The Single Email Validation API is a powerful tool that validates individual email addresses to identify and eliminate invalid or unreachable email addresses. It checks various aspects such as email syntax, MX record, server connection, greylisting, and more to provide accurate validation results.
The API thoroughly examines the structure and format of an email address, checking for common syntax errors such as missing or misplaced characters, invalid symbols, and incorrect formatting. It ensures that the email address follows the standard syntax rules.
The API verifies the MX (Mail Exchanger) record associated with the email address domain to ensure that it points to a valid mail server. It also establishes a connection with the server to validate its responsiveness, ensuring that emails can be sent to and received from the address successfully.
Yes, the Single Email Validation API identifies free email services (e.g., Gmail, Yahoo) and disposable email services (temporary email providers commonly used for spam or fraudulent activities). This helps businesses avoid engaging with unreliable or untraceable email sources.
Suppressed email addresses are typically those opted out of receiving emails or marked as "do not contact." The API checks if an email address is suppressed to respect user preferences and comply with email marketing regulations. Additionally, it identifies role-based email addresses (e.g., [email protected], [email protected]) that may have limited engagement potential.
The API returns detailed validation results for a single email address, including checks for syntax, MX records, server connection, and classifications such as free, disposable, or role-based emails. The results are provided in either JSON or XML format.
Key fields in the response include "email_address," "is_free," "is_syntax," "is_smtp," "is_verified," "is_disposable," "is_role," and "mailboxvalidator_score." These fields provide insights into the validity and characteristics of the email address.
The response data is structured as a JSON or XML object, with key-value pairs representing various validation results. Each field indicates a specific aspect of the email's validity, making it easy to parse and utilize programmatically.
The endpoint provides information on email validity, including syntax correctness, server connectivity, greylisting status, and classifications like disposable or high-risk emails. This comprehensive data helps users assess the reliability of an email address.
The primary parameter for the endpoint is the email address to be validated. Users should ensure the email is formatted correctly. No additional parameters are required, simplifying the request process.
Users can analyze fields like "is_verified" and "is_smtp" to determine if an email is valid and reachable. The "mailboxvalidator_score" can help prioritize follow-up actions based on the risk level associated with the email address.
Data accuracy is maintained through continuous updates and checks against known email service providers and validation techniques. The API employs various methods to ensure that the results reflect the current status of the email address.
Typical use cases include email marketing, user registration validation, and fraud prevention. Businesses can use the API to clean their email lists, ensuring they only engage with valid and reachable addresses, thus improving campaign effectiveness.
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.

But if you subscribe to multiple ones, you'll use the same key for all of them, making things easier for you.
