=VERVE("srvparser", "_http._tcp.example.com. 86400 IN SRV 10 60 80 server.example.com.")

Break down SRV records by the row. =VERVE("srvparser", A2) splits a record into service, port and target fields — 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 1 credit per resolved cell, and refreshed on whatever cadence you set. No API keys to wrangle, no scripts, no exports.

A real example — the input you type, and the values you can pull from it. Click any cell to see the formula behind it.

Look up facts in the grid

Fill =VERVE("srvparser", "_http._tcp.example.com. 3600 IN SRV 10 60 80 server.example.com.") beside your keys and pull the reference value for each into its own cell — one trusted lookup per row.

Standardize a dataset

Replace hand-maintained lookup tables with a live one so your reference values never drift out of date.

Join to your data

Use Parse SRV Records's output as a lookup column your other formulas can VLOOKUP or reference directly.

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("srvparser", "_http._tcp.example.com. 86400 IN SRV 10 60 80 server.example.com.")
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("srvparser", "_http._tcp.example.com. 86400 IN SRV 10 60 80 server.example.com.")

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

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

Parse SRV Records, answered

Everything you need to wire it into a sheet.

How do I pull Parse SRV Records into a spreadsheet?
Install the VerveSheets add-on, sign in with your key, and type =VERVE("srvparser", "_http._tcp.example.com. 3600 IN SRV 10 60 80 server.example.com.") into any cell. The same function works in Google Sheets and Excel — no scripts, no API wiring.
How many credits does each Parse SRV Records cell cost?
Each resolved cell costs 1 credit. Filling a column of ten rows costs ten times that; a cell only re-bills when it actually refreshes, so a static sheet doesn't keep charging.
Can I fill a whole column at once?
Yes. Reference a range instead of a single cell — e.g. point Parse SRV Records at A2:A50 — and it returns a value for every row in one call, or just drag =VERVE("srvparser", "_http._tcp.example.com. 3600 IN SRV 10 60 80 server.example.com.") down like any spreadsheet function.
Does Parse SRV Records work in Excel as well as Google Sheets?
Yes. It's the same =VERVE() function with the same arguments and the same key in both — build a sheet in one and it behaves identically in the other.
How current is the data?
Parse SRV Records is served live from APIVerve's production data engine, and cells recalculate on the refresh cadence you choose — every open, hourly, or every 30 minutes.
Where does the data come from, and what shows on my bill?
VerveSheets runs on APIVerve, our production data engine; Parse SRV Records is one of 300+ sources on the same key. Invoices and card statements show APIVERVE.

Put Parse SRV Records in your next spreadsheet. Add the extension, paste the formula, and the cell keeps itself current.
