Retrieve fraud insights for a user's manually uploaded document(s).

/credit/payroll_income/risk_signals/get can be used as part of the Document Income flow to assess a user-uploaded document for signs of potential fraud or tampering. It returns a risk score for each uploaded document that indicates the likelihood of the document being fraudulent, in addition to details on the individual risk signals contributing to the score.

To trigger risk signal generation for an Item, call /link/token/create with parsing_config set to include risk_signals, or call /credit/payroll_income/parsing_config/update. Once risk signal generation has been triggered, /credit/payroll_income/risk_signals/get can be called at any time after the INCOME_VERIFICATION_RISK_SIGNALS webhook has been fired.

/credit/payroll_income/risk_signals/get is offered as an add-on to Document Income and is billed separately. To request access to this endpoint, submit a product access request or contact your Plaid account manager.
