Creates a background check and queues it to start collecting information. The full details of background checks can be retrieved with their respective Check IDs using getCheck endpoint. Keep in mind that, depending on the check type, input document, and country of a search, certain inputs are required. You should always provide as many inputs as possible in order to get the highest accuracy.
If your check type is not referenced in the following table, please reach out to find out the fields that apply for you.

Create a custom score configuration selecting the weight for each background check dataset and the country where it applies. Weights are numbers between 0 and 1 that represent how impactful the dataset is for the score. Keep in mind that the sum of all weights must equal 1.
Creates a hook subscription to notify events in Truora plataform. Subscriptions broadcast data as events occur and additional subscription instances are not required in order to refresh the information. Events are received in an array as a JWT and are decoded using the signing key returned by this endpoint. Their structure is as follows:
```
{
"events": [
{
"event_action": "created",
"event_type": "check",
"id": "HKEdd28c569cf5eb74e45f0f4c092096e62c1c95ba2",

```
Keep in mind that the object attribute varies depending on the event_type.
Returns the results of the check that matches the ID provided, complete with a set of scores explained below.
### Scores:
- **Global Score**: Average risk associated with a person, company or vehicle, according to the background check results. The global score considers results that are validated with the ID number provided. The score ranges from 0 to 1, where 0 represents high risk and 1 low risk.
- **ID Score**: Average risk associated with a person according to the background check results. The ID score considers the results that are validated with a person identity document. The score ranges from 0 to 1, where 0 represents high risk and 1 low risk.
- **Homonym Score**: Average risk associated with a person according to the background check results. The homonym score considers results that are validated against the name of a person and could not be validated with their ID number. These results might have homonyms associated with them. The score ranges from 0 to 1, where 0 represents high risk and 1 low risk.
In order to calculate these scores, a weighted average is considered with different weights allocated to each dataset. Scores can be customized using the config endpoints by assigning a weight to each dataset according to its relevance.
Keep in mind that results from the API vary depending on the country, check type and the inputs entered on check creation.
Creates a behavior item to report employee conducts that do not or might not be included in their background check. This report includes both possitive and negative behaviors and sorts them by severity.
