Overview
This node interacts with the Bedrijfsdata API to retrieve various types of data related to companies, validation, enrichment, and miscellaneous other data. Specifically, for the Other Data resource with the Get DNS Scan operation, it performs a DNS scan on a given domain name. This allows users to fetch DNS-related information directly from the domain's DNS records.
Practical scenarios where this node is beneficial include:
- Verifying DNS configurations for domains.
- Gathering DNS metadata for security audits or troubleshooting.
- Integrating DNS data into workflows that require domain verification or monitoring.
Example: You want to check the DNS records of "example.com" to verify its MX records or other DNS entries as part of an automated domain health check.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Domain Name | (Required) The domain to scan. Enter the domain name whose DNS records you want to retrieve. |
Output
The node outputs JSON data containing the DNS scan results for the specified domain. The exact structure depends on the API response but generally includes DNS record details such as A, MX, TXT, CNAME, and other DNS entries associated with the domain.
No binary data output is indicated for this operation.
Dependencies
- Requires an API key credential for the Bedrijfsdata API.
- The node makes HTTP GET requests to the endpoint
/dnson the base URLhttps://api.bedrijfsdata.nl/v1.2. - Proper network access to the Bedrijfsdata API service is necessary.
Troubleshooting
- Missing or invalid domain input: Ensure the "Domain Name" property is provided and correctly formatted.
- API authentication errors: Verify that the API key credential is correctly configured and has sufficient permissions.
- Network issues or API downtime: Check internet connectivity and the status of the Bedrijfsdata API service.
- Unexpected API responses: If the API returns errors or unexpected data, review the domain validity and retry later.
Common error messages may relate to invalid parameters, authentication failures, or rate limiting by the API. Resolving these typically involves correcting input values, updating credentials, or waiting before retrying.
