Lemin Cropped API support

What are "Lemin Cropped" challenges?

They`re challenges that typically require the user to move a specific piece of the puzzle to its correct location.

For your convenience, we implemented support for Lemin Cropped API. If your software works with it, and supports minimal configuration, you should be able to decode Lemin Cropped using Death By Captcha in no time.

  • Lemin Cropped API: Provided a site url and Lemin Cropped captchaid, the API returns a response that you will use to submit the form in the page with the Lemin Cropped challenge.

Pricing

For the time being, price is $2.89/1K Lemin Cropped challenges correctly solved. You will not be billed for Lemin Cropped reported as incorrectly solved. Note that this pricing applies to new Lemin Cropped challenges only, so only customers using this specific API will be charged said rate.

Lemin Cropped API FAQ:

What`s the Lemin Cropped API URL?

To use the Lemin Cropped API you will have to send a HTTP POST Request to http://api.dbcapi.me/api/captcha

What are the POST parameters for the Lemin Cropped API?

  • username: Your DBC account username
  • password: Your DBC account password
  • type=14: Type 14 specifies this is a Lemin Cropped API
  • lemin_params=json(payload): the data to access the lemin cropped challenge
  • json payload structure:
    • proxy: your proxy url and credentials (if any).Examples:
    • proxytype: your proxy connection protocol. For supported proxy types refer to Which proxy types are supported?. Example:
      • HTTP
    • captchaid: the lemin cropped captchaid of the website with the lemin cropped.

      Example:

      • CROPPED_099216d_8ba061383fa24ef498115023aa7189d4

      You need to locate captchaid of Lemin Cropped. Locate the captchaid parameter value within the page`s source code or in the script source link resembling the following format: https://api.leminnow.com/captcha/v1/cropped/CROPPED_099216d_8ba061383fa24ef498115023aa7189d4/js

    • pageurl: the url of the page with the Lemin Cropped challenges. This url has to include the path in which the Lemin Cropped is loaded. Example: if the Lemin Cropped you want to solve is in http://test.com/path1, pageurl has to be http://test.com/path1 and not http://test.com.

    The proxy parameter is optional, but we strongly recommend to use one to prevent rejection by the provided page due to inconsistencies between the IP that solved the captcha (ours if no proxy is provided) and the IP that submitted the solution for verification (yours).


    Note: if proxy is provided, proxytype is a required parameter.

    Full example of lemin_params:

    
    {
        'proxy': 'http://user:[email protected]:1234',
        'proxytype': 'HTTP',
        'captchaid': 'CROPPED_099216d_8ba061383fa24ef498115023aa7189d4',
        'pageurl': 'https://testsite.com/xxx-test'
    }
                

What`s the response from the Lemin Cropped API?

The Lemin Cropped API response has the following structure. It`s valid for one use and has a 2 minute lifespan. It will be a string like the following:


"{'answer': '0xaxb8x0xaxaux0xaxakx0x0xakx0x0xaax0x0xa0x0x0x9mx0x0x9c
x0x0x92x0x0x8ox0x0x8ex0x0x84x0xax84x0xax7qx0xax7gx0xax76x0xax6sx0xkx

xk-pjc1',
'challengeid': 'a6b74f52-8b02-4af6-b4e4-fed0c2730bf5'}"
      

Once the response is received, you need to locate the hidden input fields within the Lemin Cropped captcha div, where you will input the parameters of the response. After locating these hidden inputs, assign the received values to them. Finally, submit the captcha.

Which proxy types are supported?

Currently, only HTTP proxies are supported. Support for other types will be added in the future.
