Hi RIPE Atlas team,

I would like to request access to HTTP measurements with full URL/path support.

I am currently developing a project focused on monitoring domain availability and detecting potential network interference (DNS, IP, HTTP-level) across different countries and ISPs using RIPE Atlas.

At the moment, standard measurements allow testing domains at a basic level, but for my use case it is important to test specific URLs and paths (e.g. https://domain.com/path), as blocking or filtering often happens on particular endpoints rather than the root domain.

Additionally, I am working on applying these measurements to anti-phishing and malware detection use cases. Many phishing campaigns rely on specific URL paths, and being able to measure HTTP responses (status codes, headers, response size) for those paths across different networks would significantly improve detection accuracy.

Concretely, this capability would allow me to:

• detect selective blocking or filtering of specific URLs rather than entire domains

• identify abnormal HTTP responses (e.g. block pages, injected content) on targeted paths

• compare behavior across ISPs and regions to detect network-level anomalies

• improve heuristics for early identification of malicious or compromised infrastructure

I understand that this feature may require special permissions due to resource usage, and I am committed to using it responsibly with a limited and controlled number of measurements.

I would be happy to provide more details about my use case if needed.

Thank you for considering my request.

Best regards,
Andrew Validenko
