AML Database

Download our comprehensive database.

The dilisense AML Database provides you with access to the dilisense consolidated file which includes a myriad of sanction, PEP, criminal watch lists and additional sources. All sources are listed on our website (https://dilisense.com). The file can be downloaded via API in JSON format. The API call has to be made via HTTPS request.

1. Authentication

All API calls to dilisense require an authentication via API key. Specifically we expect the x-api-key value to be set in the header of your API call. If the API key is not valid, the API call will return a 401 HTTP error code.

We will provide you with a private API key, which you can use for downloading the consolidated file via API. The private API key is only intended for your own use, as we track the number of API calls with this key. The key has to be securely stored on your side to avoid any misuse by unauthorized parties.


2. downloadConsolidatedFile (GET)

The downloadConsolidatedFile API method returns a unique link that becomes invalid once opened or after 5 minutes of issuing. It is formatted as JSON Lines and consists of the same attributes (using camelCase instead of snake_case) as described in the API Check service.

3. Versioning

The API versioning will be incremental starting from v1. Only if there are breaking changes, we will increase the version to v2 and higher. We reserve the right to introduce new functionalities at any time which are not considered breaking the current API request / response logic.

Once a new API version is available, you will be notified. However you can still use the old API version for at least 12 months before we stop supporting the old version.

4. Usage Limits

You can download the consolidated file up to 50 times a day.


5. Errors

The dilisense API adheres to the regular HTTP error codes. This means that codes in the 2xx range indicate a successful API call, codes in the range of 4xx indicate an error on the client side (e.g. failed authentication) and codes in the 5xx range inform you about an error with the dilisense servers.

The detailed error codes are: 200 - OK - The request was successful. 400 - Bad Request - The request was incorrect. 401 - Unauthorized - The API key was not valid. 403 - Forbidden - The URL is not accessible. 500 - Internal Server Error - An internal error occurred.

There is a detailed error message (JSON) available for each of the error responses, for example:

"{"error_message": "Error text."}"
