README
DNS Lookup retrieves published DNS records for any domain, including IPv4 (A), IPv6 (AAAA), and mail exchange (MX) servers. It provides hostnames, priorities, and dual-stack status flags, while paid plans add TXT, CNAME, and nameserver records.
The DNS Lookup API provides a simple, reliable way to integrate dns lookup functionality into your applications. Built for developers who need production-ready dns lookup capabilities without the complexity of building from scratch.
Available on:
Quick Start
Using JavaScript
async function callDNSLookupAPI() { try { const params = new URLSearchParams({ domain: 'myspace.com' }); const response = await fetch(`https://api.apiverve.com/v1/dnslookup?${params}`, { method: 'GET', headers: { 'x-api-key': 'YOUR_API_KEY_HERE' } }); const data = await response.json(); console.log(data); } catch (error) { console.error('Error:', error); } } callDNSLookupAPI();
Using cURL
curl -X GET "https://api.apiverve.com/v1/dnslookup?domain=myspace.com" \ -H "x-api-key: YOUR_API_KEY_HERE"
