Overview

The Bisnode RiskGuardian Credit Information Person API contains individuals risk and credit information in the Nordics. The available data varies between countries due to local legislation and data sources. This data can help you do more reliable business when financial assessments of private individuals are necessary.

NOTE: This dataset can only be used if you have a legitimate reason to do so, i.e. evaluating risk in a credit assessment purpose or have an ongoping credit engagement with the person. For Norway and Sweden a letter of notification will be sent to the consumer upon data extraction

How to use the API

This guide is intended to help you get going with your integration against the Bisnode Credit Information B2C API. It serves as a complement to the  Endpoint Reference  and aims to bring a high level understanding of the key concepts of the platform.

Search Denmark

Consumer search lets you search for a person by entering the national identification number (CPR-number) or name and date of birth. The response contains name, address, date of birth and “personId”.

 

Credit information Denmark

If you already have done a consumer search, you have retrieved a “personId”. Please use the personId as input, and not the CPR-number.

If you like to do verification and credit check in the same request and know the person’s CPR-number (“nationalIdentificationNumber”), you can use that as an input.

Changes and versioning
API version is provided in the base of the requested URL in the form of "v1", "v2" etc. Only major version numbers are used.
 
API versions are raised only on breaking (i.e. backwards incompatible) changes in the API. Fields may be added but will never be removed during an API version lifecycle. When developing your application, take care to ensure that your application is able to handle additional fields.
