List catalog
Catalog of the restricted-party list sources we ingest — issuer, jurisdiction, category, publisher provenance, refresh cadence, whether the source publishes natural persons, and the current entry count. The index for /api/v2/lists/entries and /api/v2/screening/match: every source_key here with ingested: true is a legal list= value there, and only those are. Catalogue fields that the crawler lane measures (category, publisher, publisher_country, official, licence, last_crawled, coverage_start) are null on a source that has not published them — never a fabricated default. includes_individuals is MEASURED (the source has projected at least one person row), so a person-screening caller can branch on it.

Query Parameters
Restrict the catalogue to one source_key. Case-insensitive. The accepted set grows as sources are ingested: the values published here are the snapshot at build time, and /api/v2/lists (rows with ingested: true) is the live list. Note: validation is owned by the endpoint service because it depends on composed or cross-parameter state; the published error semantics above still apply. Full value list: https://docs.gdeltcloud.com/reference/enums#list_source_key
csl_ofac_sdn, csl_ofac_ssi, csl_ofac_cmic, csl_ofac_nsmbs, csl_ofac_capta, csl_bis_entity, csl_bis_meu, csl_bis_uvl, csl_bis_dpl, csl_state_debarred, csl_state_isn, dod_1260h, un_consolidated, uk_uksl Return only sources of this kind. sanctions and export_control are the two categories that count toward the sanctions exposure lens; debarment, wanted, maritime and domestic_terror are catalogued and screenable but are not sanctions. Matched case-insensitively. Full value list: https://docs.gdeltcloud.com/reference/enums#list_category
sanctions, domestic_terror, debarment, export_control, screening_list, military_affiliation, wanted, maritime Issuer jurisdiction code (US, EU, UN, GB, CN, AU, …), matched case-insensitively. Note: validation is owned by the endpoint service because it depends on composed or cross-parameter state; the published error semantics above still apply.
Our refresh cadence for the source. Observed vocabulary — matched exactly, case-sensitively. Note: validation is owned by the endpoint service because it depends on composed or cross-parameter state; the published error semantics above still apply. Observed vocabulary, measured 2026-08-10 (2 distinct values). Values outside it are accepted, not rejected. Discover current values: GET /api/v2/lists (read cadence on each catalogue entry).
