call03 9948 4089Updating an entity uses PATCH semantics: only the fields you send change and everything else is left as it is. Pass null to clear an optional field. The entity type cannot be changed after creation, and the date of birth is locked once the entity has been used in an identification check.
For the technical detail, go to the API documentation. It holds the request and response schema, the integration guides and the error codes for this endpoint.
New accounts begin with sandbox access.
Monitors screen whatever the entity holds. A changed address, a new phone number or a corrected business number should reach the record before the next run, and a flag or risk level should reflect what your team now knows.
Fields you omit are untouched. A field sent as null is cleared. The response carries the full entity after the change.
The entity type is silently ignored if supplied. The date of birth is silently ignored once the entity has been used in an identification check.
Flags and the risk level are updated in the same call as any other field.
An entity is created active, can be archived out of monitoring and unarchived back, and is soft-deleted rather than destroyed.
Archiving and deletion have their own endpoints; this call changes the record itself.
Charges arise when screening runs against the entities in a program: each check type launched against an entity is charged at launch, and a monitor run is charged for each entity eligible for its operation. Rates are set for your account and communicated by your Global Data account manager, and statements with a per-call breakdown are in the WatchEye portal.
Show an entity reads the result. Create an entity in a program starts one. Archive an entity takes it out of monitoring. Delete an entity retires it.
Sandbox accounts are provisioned by your Global Data account manager. API keys are created and managed in the WatchEye portal, and the same endpoints serve sandbox and live; the account behind the key decides which environment you are in.
