Frequently Asked Questions
- 1. Are there discrepancies in the results when using the Search API (intelx.io) vs the Leaks API (identity.intelx.io)?
- Both APIs access the same underlying dataset. However, due to different limits, timeouts and caching small discrepancies in the number of results may appear.
- 2. I observe different results in the “Export Leaked Accounts” section than searching on intelx.io.
- The “Export Leaked Accounts” section shows a subset of all results available via Intelligence X; it lists only accounts that are potential username/password pairs.
- 3. How long does each search started via the /live/search/internal endpoint last before automatically terminating?
- Each search will be auto terminated in 5 minutes if not terminated earlier explicitly via /live/search/terminate.
- 4. How do I download a file in Identity Portal?
- The Identity Portal and its Leaks API provide no functionality to download a file. However, using the Search API from intelx.io you can use the /file/read API endpoint to download files specified either by the item’s System ID or by its Storage ID.
- 5. What is the format of the “datefrom” and “dateto” parameters in /live/search/internal?
- To filter the results based on dates, use the “datefrom” and “dateto” parameters for the /live/search/internal endpoint when starting the search. Both dates will be required if the date filter is used.
Here is an example date: “2023-03-21 00:00:00”
Don't forget to encode (escape) the date when putting it into the URL. I.e. it becomes: &datefrom=2023-03-21%2000%3A00%3A00&dateto=2023-03-27%2000%3A00%3A00
