Configuration
7 fields, 1 required. A dotted path is a nested object and name[] an array of objects — the editor renders the same tree.
| Field | Type | Required | Default | Constraints | Example |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
url The URL urlscan.io should load and scan. | string | Yes | — | url format | https://example.com/login |
visibility Who may see this scan. Leave blank to use the account's own default. | string | No | — | one of "public", "unlisted", "private" | — |
tags Up to ten labels to annotate the scan with, such as 'phishing'. | array | No | — | array of string | ["phishing"] |
country Two-letter ISO-3166-1 country to scan from; blank lets urlscan.io choose. | string | No | — | matches ^[A-Za-z]{2}$ | de |
customagent Override the browser User-Agent string used for this one scan. | string | No | — | — | — |
referer Override the HTTP Referer header the scanning browser sends. | string | No | — | url format | — |
override_safety Skip urlscan.io's reclassification of URLs that look like they carry personal data. Leave off unless you are certain the URL carries none. | boolean | No | false | — | — |
Example configuration
Every value below is the contract’s own example or default — nothing invented.
{
"country": "de",
"override_safety": false,
"tags": [
"phishing"
],
"url": "https://example.com/login"
}Output
One shape.

}Notes
- A scan takes tens of seconds: submit with urlscan.scan, wait with control.delay, then poll urlscan.get_result until 'done' is true.
- Submit anything with personal data in the URL as 'unlisted' or 'private' — a public scan is visible on urlscan.io's front page and in its search.

In a technical demo we add the urlscan.io connection, drop the node on the canvas and let Workflow Health pre-flight it before the first real run.
