Details Actions

This section covers actions for people-derived actions used to get further details for a previously matched person.

Person Details Actions require an active investigation. To generate an investigation token, you will need first to make a Person Match request.

Example workflow
  1. Use the Person Match action to search for individuals:

    Example Person Match Response
    {
    "personMatch": {
    "matches": [
    {
    "matchId": "P_000000000",
    "person": {},
    "addresses": [
    {
    "country": "GB",
    "hasMortalityRecord": true
    }
    ],
    "sources": []
    },
    {
    "matchId": "P_111111111",
    "person": {},
    "addresses": [
    {
    "country": "GB",
    "hasInsolvencyRecord": true
    }
    ],
    "sources": []
    }
    ],
    "meta": {
    "traceId": "00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000",
    "timestamp": "2023-01-01T00:00:00.000Z",
    "investigationToken": "eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJpc3MiOiJwZXJzb24tbWF0Y2gtc2VydmljZSIsImV4cCI6MTY4MDA4ODY3MiwidHJhY2VJZCI6IjAwMDAwMDAwLTAwMDAtMDAwMC0wMDAwLTAwMDAwMDAwMDAwMCIsIm1hdGNoSWRzIjpbIlBfMDAwMDAwMDAwIl19.1wN7vvVuATGoDMvYLz7EQTSy3XFfUFQ4UVeYR5eRYGs"
    }
    },
    "erroredResponses": [],
    "tags": []

    }
  2. Choose a MatchId to make subsequent requests to the person details actions:

    For LAW Users

    You can directly make subsequent requests with the chosen MatchId, including multiple requests for different MatchIds

    For Non-LAW Users

    Include the personMatch.meta.investigationToken as header x-investigation-token for all subsequent requests to the person details actions. Please note that a non LAW user can only retrieve details for up to 5 matched people per investigation.

  3. Some details responses may return newer MatchIds and a refreshed investigationToken. These can be used to make further requests for more details. This allows for a continuous investigation where you can retrieve more and more details as they become available.
