Icypeas / Verify an email address

Icypeas tool icypeas-email-verify on looot: input fields, $0.0019 per call, output shape, and code to run it with curl, JavaScript or Python.

Checks whether an email address exists and can receive mail, with catch-all detection. Send email. The call waits up to 60 s for Icypeas to finish and returns items[0].status (FOUND or NOT_FOUND) and items[0].results.emails, each with email, certainty, mxRecords and mxProvider.

• Tool id: icypeas-email-verify
• Provider: Icypeas
• Job: Verify an email address is deliverable (people.email.verify)
• Price: $0.0019 per call. A call that fails at the provider costs $0.

Inputs

Output

Shape of the run’s result, checked against 4 real answers:

{ items: { _id, name, user, order, status, system: { createdAt, modifiedAt }, results: { li, emails: { ... }[], gender, phones: unknown[], fullname, lastname, firstname, saasServices: unknown[] }, userData: { provider, externalId, webhookUrl } }[], sorts: unknown[][], total, success }

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":"icypeas-email-verify","input":{"email":"jane.doe@example.com"},"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: "icypeas-email-verify",
    input: {
      email: "jane.doe@example.com",
    },
    wait: 30,
  }),
});
const run = await response.json();
console.log(run.status, run.result);

import requests

response = requests.post(
    "https://api.looot.ai/v1/runs",
    headers={
        "Authorization": f"Bearer {os.environ['LOOOT_TOKEN']}",
        "Idempotency-Key": str(uuid.uuid4()),

        "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:people.email.verify as endpointId; see the job page.
