Linking alerts to cases
A single alert might be small enough to resolve on its own. Larger or pattern-based investigations warrant a case — a container for multiple alerts, transactions, users, and evidence. See Cases for the case model. Link from the alert detail pane: Alerts → [alert] → Link to case. You can link to an existing case or create a new one from the alert.SAR workflow
For jurisdictions requiring Suspicious Activity Reports (SARs) or CTRs (Currency Transaction Reports):- Move the alert to
PENDING_SARand attach supporting evidence. - Generate the SAR filing (PDF + structured metadata) via Alerts → [alert] → Generate SAR.
- Submit to your regulator’s portal through your usual filing channel.
- Mark the alert as
SAR_FILEDand record the filing reference number.

Alerts currently flow through thetransaction.status.updated webhook and are surfaced in the transaction response. Dedicated alert lifecycle webhooks are on the roadmap — subscribe to application changelog for updates.
Programmatic access
Alert CRUD is console-only in the public API today — there is no public alert endpoint in this openapi spec. Use the console to triage and resolve alerts. Transactions with alerts can be retrieved viaGET /v3/transactions/ and inspected in bulk.
