# DMARC Record Parser and Validator

> DMARC Record Parser and Validator is a paid API for AI agents from intel.rallylive.ca, paid per call via x402, $0.01/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-09-14).

Parses and validates a DMARC TXT record string, returning policy settings, report addresses, alignment modes, enforcement status, and warnings for common misconfigurations.

## Facts

Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability dmarc-record-parser-and-validator-995bcb2b
```

Example prompt: Can you parse and validate this DMARC record for me and tell me if it's enforcing, what report addresses are set, and flag any common mistakes: 'v=DMARC1; p=none; rua=mailto:reports@example.com; pct=100; adkim=r; aspf=r'?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need to programmatically parse and audit a DMARC TXT record string without performing a live DNS lookup — ideal for validating records before deployment, auditing exported DNS zone files, or checking user-supplied DMARC strings for correctness and common misconfigurations. It is especially useful when you want structured output with explicit warnings rather than raw DNS data.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or malformed DMARC TXT string provided — returns parsing error
- Missing required input — returns 400-level error
- Record missing v=DMARC1 header — flagged as invalid
- Payment not attached or insufficient — returns 402 Payment Required
- Rate limiting or service unavailability — returns 5xx error

## How this service works

DMARC record parser and validator: paste any DMARC TXT string and get the policy, subdomain policy, percentage, report addresses, alignment modes, whether it enforces, and warnings for common mistakes (p=none, missing rua, pct under 100, unknown tags). $0.01 per record.

## Output

Returns a structured breakdown of the DMARC record including: the main policy (p=), subdomain policy (sp=), percentage (pct=), aggregate report addresses (rua), forensic report addresses (ruf), DKIM and SPF alignment modes (adkim/aspf), a boolean indicating whether the record enforces (p=quarantine or reject), and an array of warnings for common mistakes such as p=none, missing rua, pct below 100, or unrecognized tags.
