The current version of the Social Media Username Validator API focuses on real-time availability checks. Historical tracking features may be considered for future updates based on user feedback and evolving requirements.
The Validate endpoint returns JSON data that includes the availability status of a submitted social media handle across Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, TikTok, and YouTube, along with the corresponding URLs for each platform.
Key fields in the response include "status" (HTTP status code), "success" (boolean indicating request success), "handle" (the submitted username), and "social_media" (an array containing platform names, URLs, and availability status).
The response data is structured in a JSON format, with a top-level object containing status and success fields, followed by a "social_media" array that lists each platform's details, including availability and URL.
The Validate endpoint provides information on whether a specific social media handle is available or taken on major platforms, along with direct links to the handles on those platforms.
Users can customize their requests by submitting different social media handles to the Validate endpoint, allowing them to check the availability of any desired username across supported platforms.
In the response, "is_available" indicates whether the handle is available (true) or taken (false), while "url" provides the direct link to the handle on the respective social media platform.
Typical use cases include brand management for securing consistent usernames, enhancing user registration processes, and aiding personal branding efforts by ensuring handle availability across platforms.
Data accuracy is maintained through direct API calls to each social media platform, ensuring real-time validation of handle availability based on the latest information from those platforms.

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.
