DNS Lookup

GET
https://advanced-dns-lookup-api.p.rapidapi.com
/v1/check

Performs a DNS query for a specified domain name or a reverse DNS lookup if an IP address is provided.

  • Forward Lookup: Provide a name parameter (and optionally a type parameter) to retrieve DNS records for that domain.
  • Reverse Lookup: Provide an ip parameter to perform a reverse DNS lookup (PTR). In this case, the name parameter is optional. If both ip and name are provided, the API prioritizes the reverse lookup.
