Get your API key and make your first request

If you want to use Enrichley programmatically instead of (or alongside) the dashboard, you'll need your API key and one HTTP request to get started.

Where to find your API key

• Open your profile page.

• Scroll to the API Access section. Your key is shown under "Your API Key."

• Click Copy to put it on your clipboard.

Do I need a paid plan?

Yes. API keys are generated for accounts with an active paid subscription. If you don't see a key, choose a plan first.

Make your first call

Validate a single email address with one curl command. Replace YOUR_API_KEY with the key you copied:

curl -X POST "https://api.enrichley.io/api/v1/validate-single-email" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "X-Api-Key: YOUR_API_KEY" \
  -d '{ "email": "[email protected]" }'

You'll get back a JSON response with the validation status, MX info, and provider data.

Heads-up

Each API call uses credits the same way as actions in the dashboard. Your monthly balance is shared between dashboard usage and API calls.
