Introduction

API Endpoint

https://crime.getupforchange.com/api/

Welcome to the CrimeCheck API! You can use our API to access court cases and other data in our database.

The Data APIs provide access to selected data sources, other than court records (which are available under Crime Records and Crime Reports APIs).

We have provided examples in cURL, Ruby, Python, PHP, JavaScript, Go, C# and Java! You can view code examples in the dark area to the right, and you can switch the programming language of the examples with the tabs in the top right.

The CrimeCheck APIs are organized around REST. Our API has predictable, resource-oriented URLs, and uses HTTP response codes to indicate API errors. We support cross-origin resource sharing, allowing you to interact securely with our API from a client-side web application (though you should never expose your secret API key in any public website's client-side code). JSON is returned by all API responses, including errors.

To make the API as explore-able as possible, accounts have test mode and live mode API keys. There is no "switch" for changing between modes, just use the appropriate key to perform a live or test transaction.

Basic API

Authentication

To authorize, use this code:

  curl https://crime.getupforchange.com/api/v3/authenticate \
   -u 'test_apikey:'

Note: curl uses the -u flag to pass basic auth credentials(adding
a colon after your API key prevents cURL from asking for a password).

require 'uri'
require 'net/http'

url = URI("https://crime.getupforchange.com/api/v3/authenticate")

http = Net::HTTP.new(url.host, url.port)

request = Net::HTTP::Get.new(url)
request.basic_auth("test_apikey", "")

response = http.request(request)
end

import requests

requests.get('https://crime.getupforchange.com/api/v3/uthenticate', auth=('test_apikey', ''))

$ch = curl_init();

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, "https://crime.getupforchange.com/api/v3/authenticate");
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_CUSTOMREQUEST, "GET");

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_USERPWD, "test_apikey" . ":" . "");

$result = curl_exec($ch);
if (curl_errno($ch)) {
    echo 'Error:' . curl_error($ch);
}
curl_close ($ch);

var request = require('request');

var options = {
    url: 'https://crime.getupforchange.com/api/v3/authenticate',
    auth: {
        'user': 'test_apikey',
        'pass': ''
    }
};

function callback(error, response, body) {
    if (!error && response.statusCode == 200) {
        console.log(body);
    }
}

request(options, callback);

  req, err := http.NewRequest("GET", "https://crime.getupforchange.com/api/v3/authenticate", nil)
  if err != nil {
    // handle err
  }
  req.SetBasicAuth("test_apikey", "")

  resp, err := http.DefaultClient.Do(req)
  if err != nil {
    // handle err
  }
  defer resp.Body.Close()

var restClient = new RestClient('https://crime.getupforchange.com/api/v3/authenticate')
{
    Authenticator = new HttpBasicAuthenticator('test_apikey', '')
};
var request = new RestRequest(Method.GET);
IRestResponse response = client.Execute(request);

HttpResponse<String> response = Unirest.get("https://crime.getupforchange.com/api/v3/authenticate")
  .basicAuth("test_apikey", "")
  .asString();

The above command returns JSON structured like this:

  {
    'status': 'OK'
  }

Authenticate your account when using the API by including your secret API key in the request. Your API keys carry many privileges, so be sure to keep them secret! Do not share your secret API keys in publicly accessible areas such GitHub, client-side code, and so forth.

Authentication to the API is performed via HTTP Basic Auth. Provide your API key as the basic auth username value. You do not need to provide a password.

If you need to authenticate via bearer auth (e.g., for a cross-origin request), use -H "Authorization: test_apikey" instead of -u test_apikey:.

CrimeCheck expects for the API key to be included in all API requests to the server. API requests without authentication will fail.

API Status

  curl https://crime.getupforchange.com/api/v3/status \
   -u 'test_apikey:'

Note: curl uses the -u flag to pass basic auth credentials (adding
a colon after your API key prevents cURL from asking for a password).

require 'uri'
require 'net/http'

url = URI("https://crime.getupforchange.com/api/v3/status")

IRestResponse response = client.Execute(request);

HttpResponse<String> response = Unirest.get("https://crime.getupforchange.com/api/v3/status")
  .basicAuth("test_apikey", "")
  .asString();

The above command returns JSON structured like this:

  {
    'status': 'OK'
  }

GET https://crime.getupforchange.com/api/v3/status

Check if apiKey is valid using this API.

Errors

CrimeCheck uses conventional HTTP response codes to indicate the success or failure of an API request. In general, codes in the 2xx range indicate success, codes in the 4xx range indicate an error that failed given the information provided (e.g., a required parameter was omitted, invalid API key etc.), and codes in the 5xx range indicate an error with CrimeCheck servers (these are rare).

AML - Anti Money Laundering checks - searches for a person/company’s appearance in any of the various black lists published by various national and international bodies, such as Interpol, US Trade Consolidated Screening List, NSE/BSE, MCA, etc. There are over 1000 lists, all categorized into three main categories: Sanctions, Warnings and PEP.

API Endpoint

https://crime.getupforchange.com/api/v3/aml?apiKey=test_apikey&name=ram

CrimeCheck’s AML API accepts a person/company’s name, along with optional parameters such as year of birth, country of origin and many more, to conduct searches. Additionally, users have the option to further refine their searches by limiting them to certain lists under specific categories, or by restricting searches to specific categories altogether.

HTTP Request

GET https://crime.getupforchange.com/api/v4/getVoterData?apiKey=test_apikey&voterId=WJU2379329

URL Parameters

Vehicle Number API

Vehicle Number API allows you to search for court cases that mention a given Indian vehicle number.

This API accepts parts of a vehicle number (e.g. MH-46-F-5722) such as state code (e.g. "MH"), district code (e.g. "46"), alphabetical serial (e.g. "F") and the numerical serial number (e.g. "5722"). It returns a list of court cases, just like the Records API.
