# does-site-use-joomla

> does-site-use-joomla is a paid API for AI agents from site.intel.rallylive.ca, paid per call via x402, $0.01/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-18).

Detects whether a website uses Joomla CMS by fingerprinting its homepage HTML and response headers, returning yes/no with evidence snippets.

## 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 does-site-use-joomla-7960e6bd
```

Example prompt: Can you check whether example.com is running Joomla — I need to know if it's a Joomla site before I plan our migration strategy?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need a fast, low-cost ($0.01) single-domain check specifically for Joomla CMS presence. Prefer it over bulk endpoints when checking one domain at a time, and over generic tech-stack APIs when you only need Joomla detection without broader framework analysis. Ideal for sales qualification workflows, migration audits, and competitor research pipelines where Joomla is the specific technology of interest.

## Known failure modes

- Domain unreachable or times out — no result returned
- Site uses Joomla but serves a custom homepage that obscures fingerprints — false negative
- Rate-limited or blocked by the target site's WAF — no evidence snippet
- Invalid or malformed domain input — error response
- Joomla fingerprints may lag behind very new Joomla versions — detection gap

## How this service works

Does a website use Joomla? Fetches the page (homepage for a bare domain) and matches Joomla's fingerprints in the HTML and response headers, returning yes/no with the evidence snippet and the category (CMS). Technographics for sales, competitor research and migration planning, one technology per call. $0.01 per check.

## Output

Returns a yes/no boolean indicating whether the site uses Joomla, along with the evidence snippet (the matching HTML or header fragment that triggered the fingerprint) and the technology category (CMS). Costs $0.01 USDC per check.
