How can I download all IP addresses for a certain VPN or proxy provider?
This functionality is reserved for our on-prem data customers. Our API access only allows for individual IP Address lookups.
What are the exact boundary semantics of the Anonymous +Residential Realtime feed's 5-minute window?
The window is inclusive of the start time and exclusive of the end time. For example, the file at /v2/anonymous-residential/realtime/<YYYYMMDD>/1300.json.gz covers detections from 12:55:00 up to and including 12:59:59 UTC — 13:00:00 is not included and appears in the next file (1305.json.gz) instead. When consuming consecutive 5-minute files, each detection belongs to exactly one file, so there's no gap or double-processing at the boundary between files.
How do I report a false positive or other error in feed data?
Search for the entity in the Spur Dashboard (https://app.spur.us) and use the Report button to submit a report.
When should I use the Exports API?
The Exports API is designed for environments where pre-processing isn't possible — for example, direct integration into a SIEM, IPS, or firewall. If you need full feed data, download the entire feed and perform your own transformation locally.
How do I verify the integrity of a downloaded feed file?
Checksum information is provided in the download response headers — look for a header such as x-goog-hash and use the algorithm and value it specifies to verify. Don't treat the ETag as an MD5 checksum; it isn't one.
