Keep your API key secure. Do not expose it in public repositories or frontend code.

Authentication

Authenticate your requests by including your API key as a query parameter.

Depending on the endpoint, the parameter may be:

apikey=YOUR_API_KEY
or
api_key=YOUR_API_KEY

⚠ Note: Parameter naming differs across some endpoints. Please follow the parameter format shown in each endpoint's documentation.

Quick Start Example

Validate a single email address:

<
curl -X GET "https://app.snapvalid.com/api/v1/verify?apikey=YOUR_API_KEY&email=[[email protected]](mailto:[email protected])">
🚧

You must replace your_api_key with your actual API key.

Example Response

JSON

  "email": "[[email protected]](mailto:[email protected])",  
  "success": true,  
  "result": "deliverable",  
  "message": "This address can receive emails."  
}

Best Practices

• Store API keys securely on your backend
• Never expose API keys in client-side JavaScript
• Handle 401 (Unauthorized) responses gracefully
• Monitor API usage to avoid rate limiting
• Replace YOUR_API_KEY with your actual API key before making requests
