Abstract email and IP checks in Default

Default integrates with Abstract through 2 providers. Abstract Email Reputation checks whether an email address is deliverable and risky, and Abstract Geolocation looks up where an IP address is and what network it belongs to. Default manages access to both and bills each check in credits, so you don’t need an Abstract account or API key.

Abstract Email Reputation in Default

Waterfall email validation: In a waterfall’s Validation section, turn on Email validation. Abstract Email Reputation is the default provider, and Icypeas is the other choice. The check runs on the person’s email when the waterfall runs in an Enrich Data node, and during form pre-enrichment when it is your primary waterfall. It is skipped when there is no email. See Waterfalls.
Enrich Data node: Pick Abstract Email Reputation under Providers in the node’s Enrichment source field, with Enrichment target set to Person. See Enrichment nodes.
Chrome extension and Tables: Abstract Email Reputation is also in the provider list under Request enrichment in the Chrome extension, and in Tables where Tables is enabled.

Abstract Email Reputation checks addresses you already have and does not find new ones.

Fields Abstract Email Reputation returns

Group	Fields
Deliverability	Deliverability status and detail, and whether the format, SMTP check, and MX records are valid. The MX records themselves.
Quality	A quality score, and whether the address is a free email, disposable, a catch-all, a subaddress, a role address, or has a suspicious username. Whether the domain enforces DMARC and has a strict SPF record.
Sender	The first and last name, email provider, and organization name and type behind the address.
Domain	The domain, its age, registrar, registration and expiry dates, whether it has a live website, and whether it uses a risky top-level domain.
Risk	The address risk status and the domain risk status.
Breaches	The number of known data breaches, and the dates of the first and last one.

For example, branch after the Enrich Data node so disposable or risky addresses do not reach a sequence.

Abstract Geolocation in Default

Waterfall IP validation: In a waterfall’s Validation section, turn on IP validation. The check always uses Abstract Geolocation. In an Enrich Data node, the check uses the IP address from a Form Submission trigger or a Website Intent Signal trigger. During form pre-enrichment with your primary waterfall, it uses the visitor’s IP address. It is skipped when there is no public IP address. See Waterfalls.
Abstract Geolocation node (legacy): Existing workflows that use this node keep working. It no longer appears in the Add Node picker. See Enrichment nodes.

Fields Abstract Geolocation returns

Group	Fields
Location	IP address, city, region and region code, postal code, country and country code, whether the country is in the EU, continent and continent code, latitude, and longitude.
Time zone	Time zone name and abbreviation, GMT offset, current local time, and whether daylight saving time is in effect.
Network	Whether the IP is a VPN, the internet service provider, the organization name, the connection type, and the autonomous system number (ASN).
Currency	The local currency name and code.

Location from Abstract Geolocation describes where the visitor is, which can differ from where their company is based. It suits time zone checks and regional routing of new leads. For territories and account ownership, use company data such as the headquarters country.
