AML Entity API
SEON's entity search enables you to query organizations via the AML API to determine whether they appear on any Sanctions or Watchlists, helping you ensure compliance and avoid engagement with high-risk or flagged entities. Learn more about entity search in our Knowledge Base.
Good to know:
- Entity search is an API-only feature only available through the AML Entity API endpoint.
- If you'd like to enable automatic monitoring for a name set
monitoring_required
totrue
in your request. - To receive notifications of any changes to an entity's status during AML monitoring, set up a webhook. Find out more about webhook notifications here.
- AML screening is not fully automated, we recommend reviewing potential matches manually.
- All SEON API requests are case-sensitive. Please follow the formatting below to avoid errors.
