# List a customer's document requests

> The customer's document requests with per-item status and the request
roll-up. **Never returns the documents themselves** — no file, file
name, or download URL crosses the API. Requires `documents:read`.


Every document request on the customer, with per-item status and roll-up. **The
documents themselves are never returned** — status only. Requires the
`documents:read` scope.

  title: Instant Compliance API
  version: 1.0.0
  summary: External integration API for Instant Compliance.
  description: |
    The Instant Compliance v1 API lets your systems push customers into
    Instant Compliance and pull their verification / AML status back out.
    Designed for server-to-server use (CRMs, Zapier, internal back-office
    tools).

    **Base URL:** `https://app.instantcompliance.ai/api/v1`

    **Authentication:** Bearer API key — `Authorization: Bearer ic_live_…`
    Issue keys from **Settings → Developers** in your Instant Compliance
    organisation.

    **Scope:** individual customers (`INDIVIDUAL` and `SOLE_TRADER`, KYC)
    live on `/customers`; entity customers (companies, trusts,
    partnerships, SMSFs — KYB) live on `/entities`.

      Create, read, and update entity customer records (companies, trusts,
      partnerships, SMSFs). Entities verify via KYB instead of KYC; the API

      property for real-estate integrators) and discover the group
      templates available to your organisation. Requires the Groups
