Email Validation Quickstart

Website Availability and WHOIS Checker

The Website Availability and WHOIS Checker enhances the email validationⓘ process by including website availability checks and WHOIS data retrieval for domains. You can control the new functionality via the domain_info parameter. It will influence the validation response by adding or omitting specific fields based on their value.

  • Parameter
    Possible values
    Description
  • domain_info
    True/False
    Indicates whether the website availability and WHOIS data should be included in the validation response.

Response Fields

When the domain_info parameter is set to true, the response will include the additional fields ‘domain_website_exists’ and ‘domain_registrant_company_name.’ If the ‘domain_info’ parameter is false or not provided, these fields will not appear in the response.

  • New properties
    Possible values
    Description
  • domain_website_exists
    True/False/unchecked
    Indicates if the website for the domain is accessible
  • domain_registrant_company_name
    Registrant info not found/Company LLC/unchecked
    Unchecked: the response returns too early.
    Descriptions include: failed_syntax_check, no_dns_entries, exception_occurred, greylisted
    Registrant info not found: registrant not found for the domain
    Company LLC: The company which holds the domain name

Usage Notes

To use the Website Availability and WHOIS Checker feature, take care to implement the following:

  • To enable the new website availability and WHOIS checks, ensure the domain_info parameter is set to true in your validation requests.
  • If these checks are not needed, omit the domain_info parameter or set it to false to reduce processing time and exclude unnecessary fields from the response.

If you have any questions or encounter difficulties in using the WHOIS checker, reach out to our live chat customer support - available 24/7.
