}Ingest risk signal
Submit a risk signal for a specific entity. Risk signals are scored observations from fraud-detection sources such as device fingerprinting, IP reputation services, email verification providers, or your own internal rules engine.
Each signal is stored with full tenant isolation (row-level security) and can be used to inform downstream risk decisions.

}Signal sources
Signals must specify one of the following sources:| Source | Description |
|---|---|
verification | Signals from the verification pipeline |
login | Login-related fraud indicators |
attestation | Attestation-related signals |
external | Signals from third-party fraud providers |
manual | Manually reviewed or submitted signals |
Subject types
Each signal must reference a subject. Supported types:| Subject type | Use case |
|---|---|
user | Signals tied to a specific user account |
issuer | Signals related to an issuer entity |
attestation | Signals related to a specific attestation |
session | Session-level behavioral signals |
ip | IP-address-level signals |
device | Signals from device fingerprinting |
Risk score
Therisk_score field is an integer between 0 and 100:
- 0 — no risk detected
- 50 — moderate risk
- 80+ — triggers automatic review decisions
- 100 — highest risk
Idempotency
Include anIdempotency-Key header (UUID) to prevent duplicate signals during retries. If you send the same key twice, the duplicate is silently ignored.Authorizations
API key for machine-to-machine authentication
