About

The Phone Number Detection API parses the provided text for any phone numbers and returns the original detected version in E.164 format. This API is useful for processing and validating large datasets to identify phone numbers or detecting phone numbers in inappropriate places.
This API is ideal for developers working on data validation tools, form processing applications, or compliance monitoring systems. It automates the extraction and standardization of phone numbers, ensuring accuracy and consistency. Use cases include cleaning and validating customer databases, monitoring for unauthorized phone number inclusion, and enhancing contact information management.

Authentication

All API requests to ApyHub services need to be authenticated. Currently we support tokens or basic authentication mechanisms. You can generate and view your existing credentials from your workspace settings (on the left side of the navbar) and go to “API Keys".
Points to note:
  • Credential secrets are generated on the fly and are not stored in plain text, so on generating a credential please save the secrets somewhere safe.
  • Use the apy-token as the header parameter to pass the token.
  • Use the Authorization header to send the basic authentication credentials.
