See URL identifiers from more information about how to generate a valid URL identifier for a URL.

This endpoint returns the short-lived signed URL of the DOM captured during the latest URL analysis, wrapped in a JSON response:

{
  "data": "https://vturlscreenshot.commondatastorage.googleapis.com/u-af2c53e..."
}

Use this endpoint instead of GET /urls/{id}/dom when you need the link itself rather than the HTML bytes.

Note that the signed URL is valid for 5 minutes. If the link expires, you must request the endpoint again to generate a new one. The underlying asset is an HTML file.

Examples

Get the DOM for URL ID "c9d09bb06e6b480d98faca5b84f6b87fdb2bafe2cd91b1957ee0a1ee56c6628e".

import requests

id = "c9d09bb06e6b480d98faca5b84f6b87fdb2bafe2cd91b1957ee0a1ee56c6628e"
url = f"https://www.virustotal.com/api/v3/urls/{id}/dom_url"

headers = {
    "accept": "application/json",
    "x-apikey": <api-key>
}

response = requests.get(url, headers=headers)
