What does it do?
The API interface allows you to retrieve passwords from the database in a single simple http request.
This means you can easily add hash lookups into your website or application.
How do I use it?
You send an HTTP request to http://insomnia247.nl/hash_api.php with the GET parameters type and hash.
So for example http://insomnia247.nl/hash_api.php?type=md5&hash=5f4dcc3b5aa765d61d8327deb882cf99 would return password.
No HTML or styling info is added. Just the blank, plain text password is returned.
What comes back if something is wrong?
- When a hash is not in the database: Hash not found.
- Invalid MD5 hash: Error: Not a valid MD5 hash.
- Invalid SHA-1 hash: Error: Not a valid SHA-1 hash.
- Invalid hash type: Error: Not a valid hash type.
- Not all parameters are set: Error: Both a 'hash' and 'type' need to be defined.
Some special chars show up weird
Some chars will require you support the utf-8 charset. For an HTML page you can force this support by adding the following meta tag between your head tags:
- <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
Is it free?
Yes, it is, and will continue to be free for the foreseeable future. We would appreciate it if you give us credit for it though.
I plan to use it in a pretty big site/application. How many requests can I make?
Though it should be able to handle a fair amount of requests, there's always going to be a limit. If you're planning to use it a lot, please contact us.
We can discuss if we'll be able to handle the amount of requests, or if you can perhaps set up your own local copy of the database.
