Credit Monitoring Companies
The advantages of using our API to consume monitoring is to be able to set up an automatic flow. By setting up an integration to your CRM or ERP system, you can ensure that the right people in your organization can get information about various events daily and thus minimize credit losses and through continuous updates ensure that necessary information reaches the right department or person.
Credit Monitoring provides an API that allows an integrated user to manage a portfolio of monitored companies and retrieve new events that are relevant to managing their credit portfolio risk. The service covers events on companies in Sweden, Finland, Demark and Norway. Events are updated daily and holds a full year of historical updates.

- add companies to portfolio
- get events for companies in portfolio
- get events for a single company
- get companies in the portfolio
- check if a company exists in the portfolio
- remove companies from the portfolio
- get portfolio base data
- get event codes by cathegory (only available trough the API)
- add/remove references per company
