Enterprise Public API

Build on the Paqet API

Every diagnostic tool in Paqet — DNS, WHOIS, SSL, ping, traceroute, port scanning, and more — as a fast, scoped, production-ready REST API. This is where you learn how it all works.

Get Started Open Playground

Request

curl "https://api.paqet.net/v1/dns/lookup?domain=example.com&type=ARecord" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer pk_live_xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"

Response

{
  "success": true,
  "data": {
    "summary": "A record for example.com",
    "durationMs": 128,
    "results": [
      { "value": "93.184.216.34" }
    ]
  }
}

Why the Paqet API

Fast

Most diagnostics resolve in under 300ms.

Secure

Scoped API keys, hashed at rest, revocable instantly.

Production Ready

Consistent errors, rate limit headers, full request logs.

Plain REST

JSON in, JSON out. No SDK required to get started.

Authentication, in short

Every request needs an API key sent as a Bearer token. Generate one from the Developer Portal, then send it on every request:

Authorization: Bearer pk_live_xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
