Boolean exists check for a product

GET

/product/{type}/{name}/{version}/exists

const url = 'https://patchstack.com/database/api/beta/product/npm/axios/0.21.4/exists';
const options = {method: 'GET', headers: {PSKey: '<PSKey>'}};

try {
  const response = await fetch(url, options);
  const data = await response.json();
  console.log(data);
} catch (error) {
  console.error(error);
}

curl --request GET \
  --url https://patchstack.com/database/api/beta/product/npm/axios/0.21.4/exists \
  --header 'PSKey: <PSKey>'

Boolean-only variant of the product lookup. Returns { "vulnerable": true } or { "vulnerable": false } without the advisory payload — useful for lightweight health checks and dashboard tiles where the advisory body isn’t needed.
