Flag Alerts

Flag alerts are automatically generated when a transaction matches rules or watchlists configured in your organization. These alerts allow your compliance or monitoring teams to review suspicious activity quickly.

How Flag Alerts Work

  1. A transaction is received and validated..
  2. It is checked against organization-specific watchlists and evaluated by the rule engine.
  3. If a match occurs, a flag alert is created and logged for auditing purposes.
  4. Alerts are sent asynchronously through the platform and via configured integrations.

Flag alerts are also delivered to external systems using integrations such as webhooks or other 3rd-party applications. See our Integrations Documentation for setup instructions.

Viewing and Managing Alerts

Your team can retrieve, create, or delete alerts via the API. Alerts include key details such as transaction ID, reason for flagging, timestamp, and linked transaction data.

Exporting Alerts

For reporting or compliance purposes, all flag alerts can be exported as CSV. The export includes transaction details, alert reasons, and timestamps. This allows easy review or ingestion into other systems.

Best Practices

  • Regularly review your rules and watchlists to minimize false positives.
  • Use integrations to route alerts to the right team or system automatically.
  • Periodically export alerts for compliance audits or internal review.

You can manage rules using the /alerts endpoints. Refer to the official API documentation for full details and examples:
