verify_batch
Verify a batch of email addresses
Synchronously verify a small list (up to a few hundred) and get a verdict per address in one call.
When an agent uses verify_batch
Reach for verify_batch when an agent has a handful-to-a-few-hundred addresses and wants them all back in a single synchronous response — for example validating every contact returned by a search, or every address on a parsed page. It blocks until done, so for lists larger than a few hundred use submit_bulk instead. Optional flags let the agent also flag or exclude role accounts and public-provider domains in the same pass.
POST /api/v1/verify/batchInput schema

Call it over MCP
An MCP client invokes the tool with a tools/call request. Hosted clients send this to https://verifly.email/mcp with your Authorization: Bearer vf_… header; the verifly-mcp-server package does the same with VERIFLY_API_KEY set.
{
"jsonrpc": "2.0",
"id": 1,
"method": "tools/call",
"params": {
"name": "verify_batch",
"arguments": {
"emails": [
"john@example.com",
"jane@test.com"
],
"exclude_role_accounts": true
}
}
}Posting that same call straight to the hosted endpoint:
curl -s -X POST "https://verifly.email/mcp" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer vf_your_api_key" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-H "Accept: application/json, text/event-stream" \
-d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"tools/call","params":{"name":"verify_batch","arguments":{"emails":["john@example.com","jane@test.com"],"exclude_role_accounts":true}}}'Equivalent raw REST call
Under the hood this tool calls POST /api/v1/verify/batch. If you are not using MCP, hit the REST API directly:
curl -s -X POST "https://verifly.email/api/v1/verify/batch" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer vf_your_api_key" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"emails":["john@example.com","jane@test.com"],"options":{"exclude_role_accounts":true}}'What you get back
A JSON object with total, valid_count, invalid_count, a results array (one verdict per address), and the credits used / remaining.
Required input: emails.
