Step 2: Get Your API Key
After logging in, navigate to Settings → API Keys and click "Generate New Key". Copy your API key and store it securely.
Step 3: Make Your First API Call
curl -X POST https://api.kawaa.com/v1/verify \
-H "X-Api-Key: ev_your_api_key" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"email": "test@example.com"}'Step 4: Understand the Response
Every response is wrapped in an envelope. On success, success is true and the verification result is under data:
{
"success": true,
"data": {
"email": "test@example.com",
"status": "risky",
"sub_status": "catch_all",
"quality_score": 72,
"verification": {
"syntax_valid": true,
"domain_exists": true,
"mx_found": true,
"catch_all": true
},
"flags": {
"disposable": false,
"role_account": false,
"free_provider": false
},
"credits_used": 1,
"credits_remaining": 9994
}
}Read the top-level status to decide whether to send. The booleans live under flags, and the score is quality_score — there are no top-level is_* fields.
