The data behind every screen
Every /screen request checks all enabled lists in one call, and every match names the list that produced it. These pages document each source: who publishes it, what identifiers CompliAPI extracts, how often it refreshes, and exactly what a match means.
The distinction matters: a match on a sanctions list sets sanctioned: true; matches on crime intelligence or risk exposure lists set only flagged — a signal for your policy, not a government designation.

You don't integrate these sources one by one. A single request to any /screen endpoint checks every enabled list, and GET /api/v1/screen/lists reports what's live — including each list's type, cadence and entity count. A ?lists= filter narrows any request to specific sources, and entities removed from their lists are tracked on the delisted entities page.
The full request and response shapes are in the technical documentation, and you can get a free API key to try it against live data.
