Prerequisites

To use the Data Verification services, you need to have configured at least:

• Organisation and account in the Signicat Dashboard
• API client credentials

The subsections below explain how to configure each requirement.

Configure the Signicat Dashboard

This guide assumes you have completed the following initial preparations:

1. Sign up to the Signicat Dashboard (opens new window).
2. In the Signicat Dashboard, set up an organisation and an account. For instructions how to do this, see the Initial setup page. It is also possible to add a domain, but this is not required for this product.

Sandbox account

We recommend that you create a sandbox account to test our services before implementing them in production. Be aware that you must set up the sandbox and production accounts separately.

Set up an API Client

To use to the Data Verification API, you need to set up an API Client (with a secret) and configure the correct permissions.

Follow the instructions to:

• Set up an API Client to obtain a Client ID and a Client secret.
• Select the correct Permissions to connect to the Data Verification API.

Permissions for Data Verification

• Data Verification for natural persons to connect to data sources about natural persons
• Data Verification for organisations to connect to data sources about organisations

Get started with the demo

To use the demo environment, you need to:

1. Enter you API client credentials, in the demo (opens new window) page. You can find your API clients in the Dashboard (opens new window).
2. Select Get Token to authenticate to the Data Verification API.

You have now started an authenticated session. Renew your credentials when the session expires.

Ready to go

Go ahead and try out an endpoint below.

Try out an endpoint

To make your first API request in the demo page:

1. Select Endpoints in the top navigation bar. You will view the Organizations, Persons and Sources attributes in the lower half of the page.
2. Select Organizations to reveal the available endpoints.
3. Select Basic to test the Data Verification API Basic endpoint (opens new window).
4. Enter organisation test data. For example, to retrieve information about Signicat, use:
   • Country: NO
   • ID: 989584022
5. Select Request to make the API call and retrieve data about the organisation.

Congratulations! You have just made the first request to the Data Verification API. You will now view the response data in a table. You can explore any of the other endpoints available on the demo page.

Test data

You can find test data for data sources used for each attribute and country in our Test data documentation.

Try out a use case

The demo page is designed to allow you to explore common use cases by combining multiple features of Data Verification.

For example, you can simulate a typical organisation onboarding. To do this in the demo page:

1. Select Use cases in the top navigation bar. You will find a selection of use cases in the lower half of the page.
2. Select Organization Onboarding.
3. Enter organisation test data. For example, to retrieve information about Signicat, use:
   • Country: NO
   • ID: 989584022
   • Source: optional.
4. Select Onboard. In this scenario, we retrieve data from the Basic, Finance and Screening endpoints and organise the results in a table. You can download the result as a PDF.

Congratulations! You have just explored one of many scenarios where you can use Data Verification.

Data sources

If you want to know more about the data sources supported by the Data Verification API, select the "Search Sources" use case in the demo.

To learn more about each data source, go to the Data sources documentation.
