Quick Start

To start your Creditsafe Connect API integration you will need to have activated your account and set a password by following the instructions in your Welcome Email. If you have not received a Welcome Email please contact your Creditsafe Account Manager.

By default, you will have been setup on our Sandbox environment.

Using a REST API client construct an /authenticate POST request and enter your username & password (case-sensitive) into the POST body. A successful response will return an authentication token.

Use the authentication token in an Authorization header on all other Creditsafe Connect calls as proof of your authenticity.

Companies

Endpoints to search for Companies in the Creditsafe Global Company Database. Companies are uniquely identified by the connectId - the identifier used to order a Company Credit Report. The Company Credit Report is a JSON object comprising of key business and financial data points such as Credit Score & Limit, Industry Code, Directors, Balance Sheet and Negative Information. A full list of Company data points can be found in the Data Matrix, in the help resources.

People/Directors

Endpoints to find People/Directors and order Director Reports. A Director Report will contain a person's registered information and Active & Previous Directorships, where available. This endpoint is not advised to get a list of directors for a specific Company.

source. Company Filings such as Annual Account Statements, Annual Returns,

Liquidations and Changes of Registered Information can be downloaded as

PDFs, and are typically used as a resource in extended company

auditing/compliance.

Fresh Investigations

Endpoints to manage Fresh Investigation requests. With the need for accurate data, you can check on any company that is not available within our instant online database by placing a Fresh Investigation (Offline Order). Depending on the market, the information we obtain will vary. Using official sources and registries we are able to quickly answer questions about a company's stability and financial health. Where official information is not available we will conduct a direct interview with the business.
