URL Lookup
URL Lookup
The URL Lookup page enables you to enter a single URL or domain and retrieve the corresponding Netskope predefined or custom categories, as well as applicable policies for the URL or domain.
This feature also checks for both Dynamic URL classifications and unclassified URLs. Note that if Dynamic URL Classification is enabled, the results might be inconsistent due to being temporarily cached and limited to a proxy mode.
To access the URL Lookup page, go to Policies > Web > URL Lookup. Type a single URL or domain one at a time.
 |
After you type a valid URL, the results displays in two tables related to categories and policies. The category table shows name and type (predefined or custom) and the policy table shows name only.
 |
If the URL is miscategorized, use Custom Categories to define a custom URL category or Report Miscategorization.
Note
The Netskope URL Lookup API is currently in Controlled GA. Contact Netskope Support or your Sales representative to enable this feature for your tenant.
The URL Lookup API allows you to query a URL, domain, or IP, and returns the following: predefined or custom categories, URL lists, and if the predefined categories were assigned via dynamic classification. By default, the results will also account for DNS resolution for URLs and domains, but this can be turned off.
Limits for the API per tenant are:
- Up to 100 URLs in a single API call.
- Up to 1,000 URLs per day.
- (Optional) You can increase the limit per day to 5,000 URLs. Contact your Sales representative for this extension.
More information about this REST API is available in Swagger. To learn more about REST APIs, see REST API v2 Overview.
