vt_url_id: Encode a URL as a VirusTotal v3 URL identifier
In virustotal: R Client for the 'VirusTotal' API
vt_url_id R Documentation
Encode a URL as a VirusTotal v3 URL identifier
Description
The API identifies a URL by its unpadded URL-safe base64 encoding, i.e.
base64.urlsafe_b64encode(url).strip("="). The standard base64
alphabet is not interchangeable: a / in the identifier would be read
as a path separator and the request would address no endpoint.
Usage
vt_url_id(url)
Arguments
url
A character string containing the URL.
Value
A character string containing the URL identifier.
