Similar questions
How far back does the Historical Context API go?
The Historical Context API covers approximately the past 2 years of data, available as an add-on subscription on Enterprise plans.
Do you have a bulk lookup endpoint?
No. Each IP must be submitted individually to the Context API.
How can I evaluate the Context API?
Spur does not offer a free tier for the Context API. See current monthly plan pricing at https://app.spur.us/settings/plans. If you are interested in an enterprise license, contact sales@spur.us.
How do I get my Context API token?
If you purchased the API from our website or linked your enterprise plan to an online account, view your token at https://app.spur.us/settings/api. Otherwise, contact your Spur rep for access information.
What IP addresses does the Context API use?
The Context API is served from api.spur.us over HTTPS on port 443, so the simplest firewall rule is to allow that hostname. If your firewall can only allow IP addresses, allow Spur's fixed addresses: 136.82.115.246 (IPv4) and 2600:1901:0:448b:: (IPv6). api.spur.us used to be served from Google's shared IP addresses, which change. If you allowed those instead of the hostname and Context API requests now time out or can't connect, add the two addresses above. See Network and firewall in the Context API docs: https://docs.spur.us/context-api#network-and-firewall

Why the Organization Field Isn't Available the Same Way Across Spur's Data Feeds
The Context API's per-IP organization field isn't guaranteed in every data feed. Each feed has a different schema and covers a different slice of IP space, so field availability varies by feed.
