Question regarding the API response types

[pywc]

Hello!

I wanted to mention that I'm loving this proxy detection API!

While I was using the API, I figured out that it returns 'Y' for ones they are VPN/Proxies and 'N' otherwise. However, I went into a response from an IP that says 'E' today, any explanations on what that could mean?

Thanks!

E = Error.

It could be that the IP address submitted was invalid, or a backend query failed. If it is happening on a specific address let me know, and I can investigate if something is amiss.

The specific IP that returns 'E' is here: https://defuse.ca/b/DzopjvwHJWukm6U08Gz7JX

(I pasted the IP into a secure pastebin due to privacy issues)

Can you tell me if you re-query the IP does it still return "E"?

I just tested here at home and I am seeing it come out as "N". It is possible that cloudflare might have cached a bad record.

Yes, I'm still seeing an 'E' on my end. I'm testing with this URL: https://blackbox.ipinfo.app/lookup/

Give it a shot now, I cleared out cache on it.

That worked! Thanks 👍
