Legal Entity Management API
The Legal Entity Management API enables you to manage legal entities that contain information required for verification.
Authentication
Each request to the Legal Entity Management API must be signed with an API key. Generate an API key in your Customer Area if you have a platform setup or marketplace setup.
If you have an Adyen Issuing integration, generate an API key in your Balance Platform Customer Area.
To connect to the API, add an X-API-Key
header with the API key as the value. For example:
curl
-H "X-API-Key: YOUR_API_KEY" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
...
Versioning
The Legal Entity Management API supports versioning using a version suffix in the endpoint URL. This suffix has the following format: "vXX", where XX is the version number.
For example:
https://kyc-test.adyen.com/lem/v2/legalEntities
Going live
When going live, generate an API key in your live Customer Area if you have an Adyen for Platforms integration or live Balance Platform Customer Area if you have an Adyen Issuing integration.You can then use the API key to send requests to https://kyc-live.adyen.com/lem/v2
