Getting Started

This guide helps developers understand how to securely access and interact with the Document APIs. These APIs allow you to submit, retrieve, validate, and process document-driven data across multiple business workflows including submissions, document ingestion, entity verification, rating, notifications, and data lake operations.

Base URL

All API requests must be sent to the sandbox base URL below: https://sandbox.connecttrident.com

Authentication

All endpoints are secured using an API Key.

You must include the API key in every request header:

x-api-key: your_api_key_here

Requests without a valid API key will be rejected with a 401 Unauthorized response.

Supported Content Types

The APIs support the following content types:

• application/json
• UTF-8 encoded request bodies

Making Your First API Call

Below is a simple example demonstrating how to retrieve entity data using a DUNS number.

curl -X GET "https://sandbox.connecttrident.com/data/duns?duns=123456789" \
  -H "x-api-key: your_api_key_here"

Example Response

{
  "candidatesMatchedQuantity": 1,
  "matchDataCriteria": "Basic Match",
  "matchCandidates": [
    {
      "organization": {
        "primaryName": "Example Corporation",
        "duns": "123456789"
      }
    }
  ]
}
