Querying the Database Documentation

Querying the Database

You can query the database to check if a client has been reported by other service providers on the "Make a Query" page.

Key and Data Pairs

Each query requires key and data pairs. The key is the identifier for the piece of data, and the data is the value associated with that key. For example, if you want to report a client's email address, the key would be "email" and the data would be the actual email address.

All data is encrypted with a one-way hashing algorithm before being stored in the database, according to the security method we implement. We never store the raw values of the data.

Also please read more about how FraudRecord works to understand how the data is stored and used.

Query Result Summary

Once a query is submitted, the system will search for matching reports in the database. If any reports match the provided key and data pairs, a summary will be shown displaying the point scores, and a button to see the complete result.

Query Result Page

This is a separate page that shows the complete result of the query. It includes detailed information about the reports that match the provided key and data pairs, including the point scores, dates, and any additional information available.

This page is publicly accessible, anyone with the link can view the results. You can share the link with your clients, team members, or other service providers to show them the results of the query.
