Find dead links before your visitors do. Send a list of addresses, or point the page mode at any public page and it extracts and tests the links for you.
Useful for scheduled link audits on blogs and documentation, validating outbound links before publishing, monitoring partner links, and release checks on landing pages.
This endpoint returns a summary of the link checking process, including counts of checked, working, and broken links. It also provides detailed results for each address, such as status code, final URL after redirects, whether the link works, and response time in milliseconds.
The key fields in the response include "checked" (total links checked), "ok" (number of working links), "broken" (number of broken links), and "results" (an array containing details for each URL, such as "url," "status," "ok," "final_url," and "ms").
The response data is structured as a JSON object. It contains summary fields at the top level, followed by a "results" array that holds individual link details, allowing users to easily parse and analyze the status of each link.
The endpoint provides information on the status of each link, including HTTP status codes, whether the link is functional, the final URL after any redirects, the count of redirects, and the response time for each link checked.
Users can customize their requests by providing a list of up to fifty URLs in the POST request body. This allows for targeted checks on specific links or pages, enabling tailored audits based on user needs.
Typical use cases include conducting scheduled link audits for blogs, validating outbound links before publishing content, monitoring partner links for reliability, and performing release checks on landing pages to ensure all links are functional.
Data accuracy is maintained through smart checking techniques, which include light initial checks followed by automatic retries for rejected requests. This ensures that transient issues do not lead to incorrect assessments of link status.
Users can utilize the returned data by analyzing the "results" array to identify broken links, assess redirect chains, and monitor response times. This information can inform decisions on link maintenance and content updates.
