# GetApi Email Validation

> GetApi Email Validation is a paid API for AI agents from api.getapi.nl, paid per call via x402, $0.01/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-09-15).

Validates an email address by checking its format, domain existence, MX records, and disposable email status

## Facts

## 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 getapi-email-validation-7ae6bcf5 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you check if the email address john.doe@example.com is valid — does the domain exist, does it have MX records, and is it a disposable address?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a quick, multi-factor email validation that covers format, DNS, MX record existence, and disposable address detection in a single call. It is well-suited for signup flows, lead qualification, and fraud prevention where you need more than just a regex format check but don't need full SMTP verification.

## Known failure modes

- Missing or malformed email input returns a validation error
- Non-existent or unreachable domain may cause DNS timeout
- Edge-case internationalized email formats may not be handled correctly
- Payment failure (x402) results in 402 response before validation occurs
