This API is designed to quickly, efficiently, and in a structured manner obtain and return favicons or representative icons for any web domain. Upon receiving a domain as a parameter (e.g., google.com or facebook.com), the service queries the corresponding server and extracts the associated favicon, returning it in Base64 format for easy integration into applications or websites without the need to store additional files.
The standard API response includes several useful fields. The success attribute indicates whether the request was processed correctly; count reflects the number of results found (usually one per domain); size shows the image size in pixels; and results contains a detailed object with key information, such as the requested domain and the data_url field, where the Base64-encoded favicon is located. This format is ideal for displaying images directly within HTML or JSON documents, eliminating dependencies on external paths and improving loading efficiency.
The main objective of this API is to simplify the visual identification of domains and facilitate the integration of their icons into administrative panels, dashboards, favorites lists, or monitoring tools. In addition, it can be used for brand analysis, digital identity validation, or automatic generation of customized interfaces with logos from registered sites.
Returns the favicon of a domain in Base64 format along with metadata such as size, response status, and details of the result obtained.

The Get Favicon endpoint returns a favicon in Base64 format along with metadata, including the image size in pixels, the success status of the request, and details about the requested domain.
The key fields in the response include "success" (indicating request status), "count" (number of results), "size" (image size in pixels), and "results" (an array containing domain details and the Base64-encoded favicon).
The response data is structured as a JSON object. It contains attributes like "success," "count," and "size," with "results" being an array of objects that provide domain-specific information and the favicon in Base64 format.
The Get Favicon endpoint provides information about a domain's favicon, including its Base64 representation, size, and metadata such as the domain name and request success status.
Users can customize their requests by specifying the domain they want to query in the API call. For example, using "google.com" or "facebook.com" as parameters will return the respective favicons.
Typical use cases include integrating favicons into web applications, creating dashboards, enhancing brand analysis, and validating digital identities by visually representing domains.
Data accuracy is maintained by querying the domain's server directly for the favicon, ensuring that the returned image is the most current version available from the source.
If the response indicates a "success" value of false or a "count" of zero, it means no favicon was found for the specified domain. Users should implement error handling to manage such scenarios gracefully.

To obtain your API key, you first need to sign in to your account and subscribe to the API you want to use. Once subscribed, go to your Profile, open the Subscription section, and select the specific API. Your API key will be available there and can be used to authenticate your requests.
You can’t switch APIs during the free trial. If you subscribe to a different API, your trial will end and the new subscription will start as a paid plan.
If you don’t cancel before the 7th day, your free trial will end automatically and your subscription will switch to a paid plan under the same plan you originally subscribed to, meaning you will be charged and gain access to the API calls included in that plan.
The free trial ends when you reach 50 API requests or after 7 days, whichever comes first.
No, the free trial is available only once, so we recommend using it on the API that interests you the most. Most of our APIs offer a free trial, but some may not include this option.
Yes, we offer a 7-day free trial that allows you to make up to 50 API calls at no cost, so you can test our APIs without any commitment.
Zyla API Hub is like a big store for APIs, where you can find thousands of them all in one place. We also offer dedicated support and real-time monitoring of all APIs. Once you sign up, you can pick and choose which APIs you want to use. Just remember, each API needs its own subscription. But if you subscribe to multiple ones, you'll use the same key for all of them, making things easier for you.
