​
Getting started

To begin, create a new JavaScript widget on the apps page. Provide a name for easy identification in your dashboard. Specify authorized domains and IPs for form usage. Once satisfied, click ‘Save’. Options can be adjusted post-creation.

​
Installing the Widget

After creating the app, you’ll receive your public API key along with an HTML snippet. To integrate the widget, simply paste the HTML snippet just before the closing </body> tag on your website:
index.html
...

    <script type="text/javascript">
        _ProofySettings = {
            apiKey: '000000...'
        };
    </script>
    <script type="text/javascript" src="https://cdn.proofy.io/widget/Proofy.js"></script>
</body>
</html>
Once the snippet is added to your site, the widget will automatically detect any input elements using the email type or named email. For fields not using the email type, you can enforce detection by adding the data-proofy attribute. All three fields below would be recognized by the widget: 
<input type="email" name="email_field" />
<input type="text" name="email" />
<input type="text" name="email_field" data-proofy-check />
Now that your fields are set up, the Proofy JavaScript Widget will automatically function when you start typing. By default, it blocks disposable and invalid submissions. Further adjustments can be made in the Settings section below.

​
Authorized Domains

Specifying authorized domains and IP addresses restricts unauthorized usage of your public API key. Requests utilizing your public API key are only accepted from these authorized sources. Failure to specify authorized domains or IP addresses results in all requests being processed, irrespective of their origin.

​
Throttling

Setting throttling rules helps you stop users from misusing your forms. You can set different rules to control how many times someone can check things within a certain time. If someone tries too many times, the widget will treat it as unknown, so it doesn’t stop the process. If you don’t set up these rules, your forms might be misused. This could make your account run out of credits or even lead to your account being closed.

​
Advanced Widget Configuration

Below is a code snippet for creating a feedback handler that will automatically associate itself with any field registered to the widget, whether added programmatically or automatically. JavaScript
your-component.js
    ...

    // Handle results (API call has succeeded)
    document.addEventListener("proofy:result", (e) => {
       if (e.detail.isValid) {
           // Do stuff for valid email
       } else {
           // Do stuff for invalid email
       }
   });
