API and HTTP Actions
The Accurate Background API uses standard HTTP actions to add Candidates, place orders, and retrieve order results.
| Resource name | HTTP Action | Pass Params |
|---|---|---|
| Create Resource | POST | Form Encoded or Application/JSON body |
| Retrieve Resource | GET | Query string params |
| Edit Resource | PUT | Form Encoded |
For POST API calls, which create a resource, you can pass in a complete application/json request body as an alternative to using a lot of individual POST form parameters.
Only POST commands support both application/x-www-form-urlencoded and application/json data. If you send application/json via a PUT API call you will receive an error.
