Website technology stack (tech detection)
The technologies a website runs, detected from its response headers, cookies, meta tags, HTML, script URLs, inline scripts, styles and page elements with an open fingerprint set of thousands of technologies: CMS, e-commerce platform, JavaScript frameworks and libraries, UI frameworks, analytics, tag managers, advertising, marketing automation, live chat, payment processors, CDN, hosting/PaaS, web servers, programming language, databases, security, cookie-consent tools and more. Each item has name, version (where the page shows it), confidence (0-100), categories, website, description, icon, CPE and what it was detected by (implied technologies, such as PHP under WordPress, say implied). Also by_category, the server and x-powered-by headers.
Every response includes credits_used: the credits this call cost.
Parameters
| name | type | description |
|---|---|---|
urlrequired | string | Public http(s) URL of the page (a bare domain works too). Example: https://wordpress.org/news/ |
min_confidence | integer | Only technologies at or above this confidence (0-100). Default: 0 |
descriptions | boolean | Include each technology's description. Default true. Default: true |
country | string | Two-letter country to view the page from (default US). |
Every endpoint also takes fresh, raw, fields (see lean responses and caching).
Example
curl "https://api.api.sh/web/v1/technologies?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fnews%2F" \
-H "x-api-key: $APISH_KEY" import os, requests
res = requests.get(
"https://api.api.sh/web/v1/technologies",
params={"url": "https://wordpress.org/news/"},
headers={"x-api-key": os.environ["APISH_KEY"]},
timeout=120,
)
res.raise_for_status()
data = res.json() const url = new URL("https://api.api.sh/web/v1/technologies");
url.searchParams.set("url", "https://wordpress.org/news/");
const res = await fetch(url, { headers: { "x-api-key": process.env.APISH_KEY } });
if (!res.ok) throw new Error(`${res.status} ${await res.text()}`);
const data = await res.json(); Response
A JSON object with the fields described above, plus raw (the source's own data), cached, fetched_at and credits_used. Errors return {"success": false, "error": "…"} with the HTTP status (see errors). A lookup that ran but found nothing (404) costs the price above; refused calls and errors on our side are free (what's charged).
