The daily quotas and per-minute/per-hour rate-limits for our API plans are
active as of today. To see how much quota you’re using, check out your user
dashboard. If you are submitting scans as private because your tool or
integration doesn’t support choosing the scan visibility, you can override the
behaviour in the user settings. Go to User → Settings & API → Change Settings
and then change the default visibility and select “Enforce visibility.”
This is the first release in a long time and contains many major
feature improvements and additions.
We're happy to welcome Joe Security as a new
sponsor for the urlscan.io community service!
Commercial Products
We have finalised our commercial Product lineup. If your
organisation needs to perform a large number of API requests, such as
API searches or scan submissions, you can subscribe to one of our API
plans. There is a generous Free tier available. Check out our
Products page and get in touch with our
Sales team today!
API Documentation
We have overhauled our API documentation and made it more explicit
in many areas. There is a comprehensive best-practices guide for
working with our API which is especially important if you working on an
automated integration with urlscan.io. The current APIv1 won't receive
any major or breaking changes from now on, it will eventually be
superseded by a more powerful APIv2.
API Quotas
API rate limits and quotas are accounted for for all API actions.
The API documentation contains
information how to work with the quotas. Users should use their API
keys for all API actions so these can be accounted for properly.
You can view your current quotas and how much you used on your user
dashboard and on the Quotas page.
Unlisted Scans
This release also introduces the new Unlisted scan type. Make sure you understand the difference
between Public, Unlisted and Private scans and when to use which one as outlined on
our API documentation page.
Teams
Teams allow you to collaborate and share private and unlisted scans
with team-members. Teams have their own quotas. For commercial users,
you can set up a Team Subscription so all of your users benefit
from the additional features of that subscription.
Small Features & Improvements
Logged-in users get access to a couple of new features:
- Settings: Default scan visibility and visibility enforcement.
- Quotas: Users can view their personal quotas from their dashboards.
- Teams: Users can create teams and invite other urlscan.io users.
- Disable API keys: You can disable API keys, e.g. if they were compromised.
These small improvements were made:
- We try to detect scans containing PII and will automatically restrict visibility if we detect it.
- The Live scans page has been improved to show more relevant scans.
- You can search your own scans in the regular search UI / API via
user:me
.
- The submit dialog remembers your last visibility.
- The search UI remembers your last detail settings.
