Quickstart

Before you begin

1. Select or create a Cloud Platform project.
2. Enable billing for your project.
3. Enable the Web Risk API API.
4. Set up authentication with a service account so you can access the API from your local workstation.

Installing the client library

npm install @google-cloud/web-risk

Using the client library

/**
 * Check a URI against the WebRisk API.
 * @param {string} uri A URI to pass to the Web Risk API.
 */
async function quickstart(uri) {
  // Create the WebRisk client library.
  const {WebRiskServiceV1Beta1Client} = require('@google-cloud/web-risk');
  const client = new WebRiskServiceV1Beta1Client();

  // Create an API request to check for malware, social engineering,
  // and unwanted software.
  const request = {
    uri: uri,
    threatTypes: ['MALWARE', 'SOCIAL_ENGINEERING', 'UNWANTED_SOFTWARE'],
  };

  // call the WebRisk searchUris API.
  const {threat} = (await client.searchUris(request))[0];
  if (threat) {
    console.info(threat);
  } else {
    console.info('no threats found');
  }
}

Versioning

This library follows Semantic Versioning.

This library is considered to be General Availability (GA). This means it is stable; the code surface will not change in backwards-incompatible ways unless absolutely necessary (e.g. because of critical security issues) or with an extensive deprecation period. Issues and requests against GA libraries are addressed with the highest priority.
