Context API / Identify brand from transaction data

Context.dev tool context-dev-brand-transaction-identifier on looot: input fields, $0.025 per call, output shape, and code to run it with curl, JavaScript or Python.

Endpoint specially designed for platforms that want to identify transaction data by the transaction title.

  • Tool id: context-dev-brand-transaction-identifier
  • Provider: Context.dev
  • Job: Transaction identifier brand (brand.transaction-identifier)
  • Price: $0.025 per call. A call that fails at the provider costs $0.

Inputs

Name Type Required Description
city string no Optional city name to prioritize when searching for the brand.
country_gl string no Two-letter ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 country code (GL parameter) used to localize search.
force_language string no
high_confidence_only boolean no When set to true, the API will perform an additional verification steps to ensure the identified brand matches the transaction with high confidence.
maxSpeed boolean no Optional parameter to optimize the API call for maximum speed. When set to true, the API will skip time-consuming operations for faster response at the cost of less comprehensive data.
mcc string no Optional Merchant Category Code (MCC) to help identify the business category/industry.
phone string no Optional phone number from the transaction to help verify brand match.
tags array no Optional tags for tracking usage. Up to 20 tags, each 1 to 50 characters.
timeoutMS integer no Optional timeout in milliseconds for the request. If the request takes longer than this value, it will be aborted with a 408 status code. Maximum allowed value is 300000ms (5 minutes).
transaction_info string yes Transaction information to identify the brand

Output

Shape of the run’s result, checked against 1 real answer:

{ code, brand: { email, links: { blog, terms, careers, contact, pricing, privacy }, logos: { url, mode, type, colors: { ... }[], resolution: { ... } }[], title, colors: { hex, name, source }[], domain, slogan, address: { city, street, country, state_code, postal_code, country_code, state_province }, is_nsfw, socials: { url, type }[], backdrops: { url, colors: { ... }[], resolution: { ... } }[], employees: { exact, range }, industries: { eic: { ... }[] }, description, primary_language }, status, request_id, key_metadata: { credits_consumed, credits_remaining }, cache_metadata: { age_ms, status ... ...

The shape is cut here. Signed in, looot inspect context-dev-brand-transaction-identifier prints all of it.

Run it

Every call needs your API token in LOOOT_TOKEN; Sign in shows how to get one. Each run also needs a new idempotency key, so a retry never pays twice. With wait: 30 the answer comes back inline when the run ends within 30 seconds. Otherwise you get the running run back: poll GET /v1/runs/<runId>.

Example input with placeholder values:

curl -X POST "https://api.looot.ai/v1/runs" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $LOOOT_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "Idempotency-Key: $(uuidgen)" \
  -d '{"endpointId":"context-dev-brand-transaction-identifier","input":{"transaction_info":"<transaction_info>","tags":["production","team-alpha"]},"wait":30}'
const response = await fetch("https://api.looot.ai/v1/runs", {
  method: "POST",
  headers: {
    Authorization: `Bearer ${process.env.LOOOT_TOKEN}`,
    "Content-Type": "application/json",
    "Idempotency-Key": crypto.randomUUID(),
  },
  body: JSON.stringify({
    endpointId: "context-dev-brand-transaction-identifier",
    input: {
      transaction_info: "<transaction_info>",
      tags: ["production", "team-alpha"],
    },
    wait: 30,
  }),
});
const run = await response.json();
console.log(run.status, run.result);
import os
import uuid

import requests

response = requests.post(
    "https://api.looot.ai/v1/runs",
    headers={
        "Authorization": f"Bearer {os.environ['LOOOT_TOKEN']}",
        "Idempotency-Key": str(uuid.uuid4()),
    },
    json={
        "endpointId": "context-dev-brand-transaction-identifier",
        "input": {
            "transaction_info": "<transaction_info>",
            "tags": ["production", "team-alpha"],
        },
        "wait": 30,
    },
    timeout=90,
)
run = response.json()
print(run["status"], run.get("result"))

To let looot pick among every provider of this job instead, send job:brand.transaction-identifier as endpointId; see the job page.
