🔐 Microsoft Account Checker (Outlook, Hotmail, Office 365, Live)

Validate and verify the existence of any email address against Microsoft's official Identity Provider (IdP) system instantly. Efficiently check Outlook, Hotmail, Office 365, Live, and custom domain Microsoft corporate/educational accounts.

No browsers, proxies, or complex browser automation scripts are needed. This Actor leverages a high-performance edge service that directly verifies registration status with Microsoft, yielding results in milliseconds.

🌟 Key Features

• High-Speed Account Verification: Direct communication with Microsoft Identity Provider endpoints provides lightning-fast checks.
• Bulk Check Ready: Lightweight execution with minimal overhead, suitable for large lists of accounts.
• Identify Account Status: Returns clear, structured responses mapping whether the account exists and the associated account type.
• CORS-Enabled Routing: Secured via custom X-Api-Key headers for seamless application programming.
• Zero Blocks or Captchas: Uses optimized browser header profiles to mimic real user interactions, preventing rate limiting and IP blocks.

🛠️ How It Works

This actor queries an edge-deployed Cloudflare Worker gateway, which acts as a secure reverse-proxy. The gateway forwards an inquiry to Microsoft's official discovery endpoints (odc.officeapps.live.com). It reads the authentication responses, parses the underlying IdP tags, and converts the results into a standardized format.

• Registered Personal Account: Returns Microsoft Account (is_registered = true).
• Work or School Directory: Identifies organization-managed profiles.
• Not Registered: Identifies if the email address is completely unregistered with Microsoft services (is_registered = false).
