Alerts

Alerts is an automated monitoring feature that performs daily checks against anti-money laundering databases and alerts you if things change.

How it works

If a new hit is found, an alert will be:

  • added to the team dashboard for you to acknowledge
  • sent to your specified webhook URL (if set) containing the relevant case ID, so you can follow up

Response format

When a hit is found, a POST request is sent to your webhook URL with a webhook payload.

Example response

{
"event": "Alert"
"id": "123",
"email": "[email protected]",
"redirect_url": "http://example.com",
"status": "Verified",
"verification_method": "Document",
"created_at": "2024-01-09T10:30:00Z",
"expires_at": "2024-01-09T10:30:00Z",
"workflow_id": "abc",
"external_id": "xyz",
}

Important notes

  • You will be alerted once, the first time an entity is found in the databases, and will only be re-alerted if they are added/removed in further lists.
  • Webhook payloads are deliberately lightweight, and don't currently include the reason for the alert. We recommend that checking the dashboard to understand the details before taking action.
