What this pulls

Check email brand records down a column. Verifies each domain's BIMI logo and VMC live — Sheets or Excel.

It's one of 250+ live sources you reach with a single =VERVE() function — served from APIVerve's production data engine, billed at 5 credits per resolved cell, and refreshed on whatever cadence you set. No API keys to wrangle, no scripts, no exports.

Ways to use it

Audit a list of domains

Put your domains in a column and fill =VERVE("bimivalidator", "ebay.com", "field", "host") to pull each one's records or health into the grid — a whole portfolio checked at once.

Enrich a prospect sheet

Add domain intelligence beside your leads so sales or security can sort and prioritize without leaving the sheet.

Monitor on a schedule

Let auto-refresh re-check every domain periodically so a monitoring sheet flags changes on its own.

Use it in your sheet

The same function works in both apps — install once, sign in with your key, and type it into any cell.

Google SheetsAdd-on

Install from the Workspace Marketplace, then drop the formula into a cell. Autocomplete suggests the source and its fields.

=VERVE("bimivalidator", "ebay.com", "field", "host")
Microsoft ExcelAdd-in

Same source, same arguments, same key — in Excel on desktop, the web, or mobile. Excel namespaces it as VERVE.CALL. Drag to fill a whole column.

=VERVE.CALL("bimivalidator", "ebay.com", "field", "host")
Fields you can pull

Add a field name as the last argument to land just that value in the cell.

  • Host
    =VERVE("bimivalidator", "ebay.com", "field", "host")
  • Bimi host
    =VERVE("bimivalidator", "ebay.com", "field", "bimi_host")

    =VERVE("bimivalidator", "ebay.com", "field", "bimi_record")
  • Bimi records count
    =VERVE("bimivalidator", "ebay.com", "field", "bimi_records_count")
  • Version
    =VERVE("bimivalidator", "ebay.com", "field", "version")
  • Svg logoPremium
    =VERVE("bimivalidator", "ebay.com", "field", "svg_logo")
  • Svg logo › Url
    =VERVE("bimivalidator", "ebay.com", "field", "svg_logo.url")
  • Svg logo › Status code
    =VERVE("bimivalidator", "ebay.com", "field", "svg_logo.status_code")
  • Svg logo › Valid
    =VERVE("bimivalidator", "ebay.com", "field", "svg_logo.valid")
  • Svg logo › File size bytes
    =VERVE("bimivalidator", "ebay.com", "field", "svg_logo.file_size_bytes")
  • Vmc certificatePremium
    =VERVE("bimivalidator", "ebay.com", "field", "vmc_certificate")

Premium marks data included on paid plans. On the Free plan a marked field is withheld and a marked input is ignored — either way the cell reads #PREMIUM(name) instead of a value, so a gated answer can never be mistaken for a real one. Everything unmarked works on every plan. Compare plans

Validate BIMI Records, answered

Everything you need to wire it into a sheet.

How do I pull Validate BIMI Records into Google Sheets?
Install the VerveSheets add-on, sign in once with your key, and type =VERVE("bimivalidator", "ebay.com", "field", "host") into any cell. The "field" argument names the value you want back, so the cell resolves to a single number or string you can chart, sort, or feed into another formula.
What data can I pull from Validate BIMI Records?
Validate BIMI Records returns host, bimi_host, has_bimi_record, bimi_records_count and version, plus 4 more — name any one of them as the "field" argument and that value lands in the cell. Leave the field out and the whole record spills into a two-column table instead.
Which Validate BIMI Records fields need a paid plan?
bimi_record, svg_logo and vmc_certificate are included from the Starter plan up. On the Free plan the cell returns #PREMIUM(field) rather than a wrong or empty value, so it's always obvious which one to upgrade for. Every other field works on Free.
Can I fill a whole column of Validate BIMI Records at once?
Yes. Put your domain values down a column and point the formula at the range — A2:A50 instead of A2 — and one call returns a value for every row. Dragging the formula down works too, but the range form is a single billed call per column rather than one per cell.
How many credits does each Validate BIMI Records cell cost?
Each resolved cell costs 5 credits. A cell only re-bills when it actually refreshes, so a sheet you aren't touching doesn't keep charging.
Does Validate BIMI Records work in Excel as well as Google Sheets?
Yes — same arguments, same key, same fields. Excel namespaces custom functions, so the call is =VERVE.CALL() there and =VERVE() in Google Sheets; nothing else about it changes.
