call03 9948 4089Person Report Result polls for the result of a Person Report request. The call is free of charge; only the originating request is billed. Every poll returns a status, and once the status is complete the body carries the resolution, the report where one person was resolved, and the full provenance. Append pdf=true for a formatted PDF instead of JSON. The endpoint is experimental and may change.
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.
Accounts start in the sandbox. Production keys are issued once the account is approved.
A Person Report request runs in the background. This call reports where it is and, once complete, carries the resolution and the report. Your system supplies the request UUID and reads the status until it is complete or error. Typical turnaround is a few seconds; allow up to a minute when the court and social sections are included.
The status is pending before the search starts, processing while it runs, complete when the resolution is available, or error when the report could not be produced. A status message describes the current step or explains the error.
Once complete, the resolution carries the outcome, the confidence, the number of candidates and rounds, a per-field comparison of the details supplied with the resolved subject, and the corroborations and flags. Same-name records that were set aside are listed with the reason.
When the outcome is resolved, the report carries identity with a deceased check, the address timeline with co-residents and listings, phones and emails with a live connectivity check, possible relatives, judgements, business and ASIC records, UK Companies House officers, PEP, sanctions and banned-person matches, court summaries and records, and the social profile.
Provenance is returned in full: every source lookup with its exact query and result count, every inference with its rule and evidence, and the chronological research notes. The request reference on the result is the API reference of the originating request, for billing reconciliation.
The Person Report request returns at once with a request UUID. This call reports the status and carries the result once complete. Every poll returns HTTP 200 with the status field; this endpoint never returns 202. Repeat it until the status is complete or error.
An unknown request UUID, or one that belongs to another account, returns a 400 response. Results are retained for 24 hours. In the sandbox the queue runs synchronously, so the result is normally complete on the first poll. This endpoint is experimental and subject to change.
The status field tells your system whether to read the result, wait, or stop. Once complete, the resolution outcome tells your team whether a report is attached.
The body carries the resolution and the provenance, and the report when the outcome is resolved. An unresolved outcome carries a redacted candidate list or narrowing hints instead. Store the result and stop polling.
The status is pending or processing and the status message describes the current step. Check again; typical turnaround is a few seconds, and up to a minute when the court and social sections are included.
The status message explains why. Nothing is billed for the request. Submit a new Person Report request or contact support with the API reference.
Your subscription is credited to your account each month and each check consumes credits from it. If you go past the included amount, further checks are charged at a per-check rate. The rate depends on the volume you commit to, so the sales team is the fastest way to find where your business lands.
Person Report starts the request this call collects. Person History returns the dated address and contact records for a person. Deceased Check answers the death question on its own.
New accounts begin with sandbox access, and production API keys are issued once the account has been commercially approved.
