Batch Jobs

Create and manage batch KYC validation jobs for processing multiple entities efficiently. Batch jobs allow you to submit large numbers of entities for validation and track their progress asynchronously.

Endpoints

Method	Endpoint	Description
`POST`	`/kyc/jobs`	Create a new batch job
`GET`	`/kyc/jobs/{job_id}`	Get job status and results

Authentication

Requires kyc:create permission for creating jobs and kyc:read permission for retrieving job status. Include your Bearer token in the Authorization header.

Create Batch Job

Submit multiple entities for KYC validation in a single batch job.

Endpoint

POST /kyc/jobs

Usage Examples

Python Example

import requests

token = "YOUR_TOKEN"

# Create batch job

    "https://stg.kyc.legaltalent.ai/kyc/jobs",
    headers={
        "Authorization": f"Bearer {token}",

JavaScript Example

const token = "YOUR_TOKEN";

async function createBatchJob(entities) {
  // Create job
  const createResponse = await fetch(

      },
      body: JSON.stringify({ entities })
    }
  );
  
  const jobData = await createResponse.json();
  
  if (!createResponse.ok) {
    throw new Error(jobData.error);
  }
  
  const jobId = jobData.job_id;
  console.log(`Job created: ${jobId}`);
  
  // Poll for completion
  while (true) {
    const statusResponse = await fetch(
      `https://stg.kyc.legaltalent.ai/kyc/jobs/${jobId}`,
      {
        headers: {
          "Authorization": `Bearer ${token}`
        }
      }
    );
    
    const statusData = await statusResponse.json();
    console.log(`Status: ${statusData.job_status} - ${statusData.processed_entities}/${statusData.total_entities}`);
    
    if (statusData.job_status === 'completed') {
      console.log(`Matches found: ${statusData.matches_found}`);
      statusData.results.forEach(result => {
        if (result.is_match) {
          console.log(`Entity ${result.entity_id}: ${result.match_count} matches`);
        }
      });
      return statusData;
    } else if (statusData.job_status === 'failed') {
      throw new Error("Job failed");
    }

    await new Promise(resolve => setTimeout(resolve, 5000));
  }
}

Best Practices

Batch Size: Keep batches between 100-1,000 entities for optimal performance
Entity IDs: Always provide entity_id to track individual entities in results
Polling: Poll job status every 5-10 seconds (don’t poll too frequently)
Error Handling: Handle failed entities appropriately
Rate Limits: Be aware of API rate limits when creating multiple jobs

Performance

Processing Time: Approximately 1-2 seconds per entity
Maximum Entities: 10,000 entities per job
Chunking: Large batches are automatically chunked for processing
Concurrent Processing: Entities are processed in parallel for faster completion

Job Statuses

Status	Description
`processing`	Job is currently being processed
`completed`	All entities have been processed successfully
`failed`	Job failed (check error details)

Integration Tips

Async Processing: Batch jobs are processed asynchronously - don’t wait for completion
Status Polling: Implement exponential backoff for status polling
Result Storage: Store job results for audit and compliance purposes
Error Recovery: Implement retry logic for failed entities
