Path Parameters

​
grapheme
string
required

Grapheme to inspect. Should be url-encoded (except when using the Swagger UI).

Example:

"v"

Response

200
application/json
Successful Response
​
rating
enum<integer>
required

The rating of a name/label/grapheme based on multiple conducted checks.

  • pass: All checks passed.
  • warn: At least one check failed with a WARN status but no check failed with an ALERT status.
  • alert: At least one check failed with an ALERT status.
Available options:
2,
3,
4
Example:

3

​
risk_count
integer
required

The number of checks that have a status of alert or warn.

Example:

2

​
highest_risk
object | null
required

The check considered to be the highest risk. If no check has a status of alert or warn, this field is null.

​
normalization
enum<string>
required

The ENSIP-15 normalization status of a grapheme. This check does not consider the context of the grapheme and is not equivalent to ens_normalize(grapheme). A normalized grapheme can be combined with other normalized graphemes to form an unnormalized label. The position of a grapheme in a label can also affect the normalization status of the label.

  • normalized: The grapheme is normalized.
  • unnormalized: The grapheme is not normalized.
Available options:
normalized,
unnormalized
​
grapheme
string
required

The analyzed grapheme.

Example:

"v"

​
grapheme_name
string
required

The name of the grapheme.

Example:

"Latin Small Letter V"

​
grapheme_type
string
required

The type of the grapheme. If all characters in the grapheme have the same type, that type is returned. Otherwise, special is returned.

  • simple_letter - [a-z]
  • simple_number - [0-9]
  • other_letter - a letter (single-char grapheme) in any script that is not simple; LC class http://www.unicode.org/reports/tr44/#GC_Values_Table
  • other_number - a digit (single-char grapheme) in any script that is not simple; N class http://www.unicode.org/reports/tr44/#GC_Values_Table
  • hyphen - a hyphen
  • dollarsign - a dollar sign
  • underscore - an underscore
  • emoji - an emoji or emoji ZWJ sequence
  • invisible - zero width joiner or non-joiner
  • special - for any grapheme that doesn't match one of the other classifications or if characters have different types
Example:

"simple_letter"

​
grapheme_script
string
required

Script name of the grapheme computed from the script names of its characters.

Example:

"Latin"

​
grapheme_description
string
required

Description of the grapheme type.

Example:

"A-Z letter"

​
checks
object[]
required

A list of checks that were performed on the grapheme.

The result of a conducted check.

​
grapheme_link
string | null
required

Link to an external page with information about the grapheme.

  • null for multi-character graphemes
Example:

"https://unicodeplus.com/U+0076"

​
confusables
object[]
required

A list graphemes that can be confused with the analyzed grapheme. The list does not contain the analyzed grapheme. A canonical form of the grapheme is the first element of the list, if it is known. Otherwise, the first element is a different confusable.

​
canonical_grapheme
string | null
required

A grapheme that is the canonical form of the analyzed grapheme.

  • null if the canonical form is not known
  • does not imply that the canonical grapheme/label/name is normalized
Example:

"v"

​
title
string
required

A human-readable title based on the rating.

​
subtitle
string
required

A human-readable subtitle based on the rating.

​
grapheme_link_name
string
required

The name of the webpage that grapheme_link links to.

  • "No link is available" if grapheme_link is null
​
codepoints
string[]
required

The codepoints of the grapheme in the format U+XXXX. Some graphemes may have multiple codepoints.
