BigDataCloud

IP geolocation and data validation API for country lookups, BGP and ASN routing data, and email verification.

Designed for developer tools that resolve IPs to country and ASN data, inspect BGP announcements, and verify emails or device roaming context.

Example Use Cases

These are example ways Snow can use BigDataCloud when building apps with you. This list is meant to show examples, not document every possible capability. Connecting an account does not make Snow run these automatically on its own.

Am I Roaming API

Tool to determine if the user is roaming based on their IP address and GPS coordinates. Use after obtaining device location to verify roaming status before mobile actions.

ASN Extended Receiving From Info API

Tool to return upstream providers (receivingFrom) for a given ASN. Use when you need a paginated list of ASes feeding traffic for the specified ASN.

ASN Extended Transit To Info API

Tool to return downstream customers (transitTo) for a given ASN. Use when you need a paginated list of ASes receiving traffic from a specific ASN.

ASN Rank List API

Retrieves a ranked list of Autonomous Systems (ASNs) sorted by IPv4 address announcement volumes. Use cases: - Find the largest ASNs by IP address count (DoD, Amazon, Microsoft, etc.) - Look up ASN rankings for network analysis - Paginate through the global ASN database (79,000+ entries) - Sort ASNs by various criteria (rank, name, organisation, country) Returns paginated results with total count for navigation.

BGP Active Prefixes API

Tool to retrieve IPv4 or IPv6 prefixes currently announced on BGP. Use when inspecting BGP routing announcements for a given ASN.

Country by IP Address API

Tool to geolocate an IP address and retrieve country details and demographics. Use when you need country-level data after obtaining the target IP address.

Country Info API

Tool to fetch detailed country information by ISO code. Use when you need localized names, currencies, regions, and other metadata for a country.

Email Address Verification API

Tool to verify email addresses for syntax, domain validity, and disposability. Use after obtaining the email input.

Hazard Report API

Tool to fetch a cybersecurity hazard report for a specified IP address. Use when assessing an IP's threat profile (VPN, proxy, blacklists, hosting risk).

Network by IP Address API

Tool to retrieve registry, ASN, and BGP details for a given IP address’s network. Use when you need detailed network information (e.g., ASNs, prefixes) after confirming the target IP.
