# Get regulated checks

Get a set of regulated instant criminal checks for the authenticated account.

Endpoint: GET /regulated/checks
Version: 1.0
Security: get-bearer-token-using-oauth2

## Query parameters:

  - `limit` (integer)
    Limit the number of records returned

  - `skip` (integer)
    Skip a number of records before returning (for paging)

  - `include[]` (array)
    Request optional response fields. Repeat the parameter for multiple values.

## Response 200 fields (application/json):

  - `profile_id` (string)
    Identifier of an existing profile containing search criteria.
    Example: 2b8313e8-4efd-45a1-b578-952b8313e890

  - `profile` (object)
    A profile containing personal information used for checks and verifications.

  - `profile.full_name` (string)
    The full name of the person. Must not be combined with first_name, middle_name, or last_name.
May be combined with `no_middle_name` on create/update; when that flag is `true`, parsing
stores only a first name and surname (any middle token is folded into the last name).

  - `profile.first_name` (string)
    The first name of the person.

  - `profile.middle_name` (string)
    The middle name of the person. Can be null if not provided.

  - `profile.no_middle_name` (boolean)
    Set to `true` to declare that the subject does not have a middle name.
**Mutually exclusive with a non-empty `middle_name`:** the API rejects requests that
supply both a present `middle_name` and `no_middle_name: true`. An empty or null
`middle_name` with `no_middle_name: true` is allowed. A non-empty `middle_name` may be
supplied with `no_middle_name: false`.
**Allowed with `full_name`:** `full_name` and `no_middle_name` may be sent together.
That is not the same as supplying `middle_name` — when the flag is `true`, parsing
stores only a first name and surname, and any token the parser would have treated as
a middle name is folded into the last name (for example `full_name: "John Quincy Doe"`
becomes first name `John` and last name `Quincy Doe`, with `middle_name` empty).
Setting this to `true` clears a middle name already stored on a referenced profile.
Supplying a non-empty `middle_name` without this field sets `no_middle_name` to `false`.
When `true`, products that perform criminal-record identity matching exclude records
with a middle name, narrowing matches to subjects with no middle name on record.
When supplied with `profile_id`, the value is persisted to the referenced profile
(same account-scoped profile the check is created against).
Leave as `false` (or omit) if unsure.

  - `profile.last_name` (string)
    The last name of the person.

  - `profile.dob` (string)
    Date of birth in the form YYYYMMDD.
Must be a valid date and cannot be in the future.
If invalid, the API returns a 400 with a `validation_error` pointing to `/dob`.
    Example: 19950401

  - `profile.phone` (string)
    A phone number in the form +[country code][number including area code].
([E.164 format](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E.164)).
Please note that U.S. phone numbers have a country code of "1" so all U.S. phone numbers ought to start with "+1".
A U.S. number supplied in national format (for example "(415) 555-0123") is normalized to E.164
on write. If the value cannot be parsed as a valid phone number, the API returns a 400 with a
`validation_error`.
    Example: +14155552671

  - `profile.country_code` (string)
    The phone country calling code supplied for a reverse phone verification (for example, "1" or "54").

  - `profile.email` (string)
    An email address.
    Example: john.doe@example.com

  - `profile.ssn` (any)
    US Social Security Number.
**Masked by default** — API responses return `XXX-XX-{last4}`. Full SSN is
available via `?unmask_ssn=true` on endpoints that support it (driver checks and
identity verifications), subject to your account's product configuration. Contact
your account representative to enable SSN unmasking.
**Always `null` on list/index endpoints** (e.g. `GET /profiles`, `GET /checks`), regardless
of masking or unmasking settings. Fetch the individual resource (e.g. `GET /profiles/{id}`)
to see the masked or unmasked value for a specific record.
May also be null on a single-resource response when no SSN was provided.
    Example: XXX-XX-6789

  - `profile.address` (object)
    A US postal address supplied in a **request** (for example on check create or profile create/update).
When this object is present, `street`, `city`, `state`, and `zip_code` are required.

  - `profile.address.street` (string, required)
    Street address, including house/building number and street name.
Apartment or unit numbers may be included; they are stored but are not used for criminal-record address matching.
    Example: 123 Main St

  - `profile.address.city` (string, required)
    The name of the city or municipality.
    Example: Frankfort

  - `profile.address.state` (string, required)
    A two-letter US state code.
    Example: CA

  - `profile.address.zip_code` (string, required)
    US Postal Service ZIP code (5-digit or 9-digit ZIP+4 format).
    Example: 94105

  - `profile.address.country` (string)
    A two-letter country code in ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 format.
    Example: US

  - `profile.addresses` (array)
    **Request only.** Array of addresses supplied by the caller. Index 0 is the primary address.
When the property is provided, at least one address entry is required.
For check requests, records may be matched against any address in the array.
The singular `address` field remains supported for backwards compatibility and maps to the primary address.

  - `profile.custom_id` (string)
    An identifier of your choice, if you wish to use one. Limited to 64 alphanumeric characters, underscores, and hyphens.
    Example: my-custom-id-123

  - `profile.driver_license_number` (string)
    The driver license number. Format dependent on State.
    Example: D1234567
