Bulk Validate URLs & Detect Redirect Chains in Power Automate (SSRF-Safe)

Audit CRM website fields, marketing links, and vendor portals inside Power Automate without hanging flows on dead domains — complete with 3-second timeout protection and redirect chain resolution.

⚠️ Common Power Automate Bottleneck

Using Power Automate’s native HTTP action to check whether user-submitted CRM URLs are alive causes flows to fail on 404/500 responses, hang for minutes on unresponsive DNS, or expose internal networks if URLs are not sanitized.

✅ Zetaleap Edge Architecture

Call POST /api/tools/validate-url to receive a structured HTTP 200 JSON report (isValidSyntax, isReachable, statusCode, isRedirected, finalUrl, domain) with built-in 3-second timeout and SSRF private-IP blocking.

1

Trigger When a Lead or Vendor Record Is Created

Trigger your flow when a new Account/Lead row is added in Dynamics 365, Dataverse, HubSpot, or SharePoint.

2

Call POST /api/tools/validate-url

Even if the target website is offline or returns 404, Zetaleap returns HTTP 200 OK with isReachable: false so your Power Automate run never crashes with an unhandled action failure.
