Create Automatically

Overview

The automatic company creation endpoint allows you to create companys by providing minimal information (tax ID and country). The system automatically:

Fetches company data from official registries
Enriches the company with additional information
Executes integrations (checks and enrichments) automatically

This is ideal for KYB (Know Your Business) processes where you want to onboard businesss with complete information automatically.

Endpoint

POST http://api.gu1.ai/entities/automatic

Authentication

Requires a valid API key in the Authorization header:

Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY

Request Body

taxId

string

required

Tax identification number of the company (e.g., CPF for Brazil, CURP for Mexico, CUIT for Argentina)

📋 See Tax ID Formats by Country for accepted formats and validation rules for each country.

country

string

required

ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 country code (e.g., “BR”, “MX”, “AR”, “CL”)

type

string

required

Must be set to company

externalId

string

Your unique identifier for this company (optional, will be auto-generated if not provided)

isClient

boolean

default:"false"

Mark this company as a client/business for tracking purposes

riskMatrixId

string

UUID of the risk matrix to execute rules from automatically

skipRulesExecution

boolean

default:"false"

Skip automatic rules execution after company creation

status

string

default:"under_review"

Initial status for the company

depth

number

default:"0"

Depth of relationship extraction (0-5). Controls how many levels of shareholders/relationships to automatically fetch and create.

0: No relationships (only main entity)
1: Direct shareholders only
2: Shareholders + their shareholders
3-5: Additional levels (use with caution - can create many entities)

autoExecuteIntegrations

object

Configure automatic execution of integrations for the main company entity. See Provider Codes Reference for available codes.Type: object (optional)Properties:

executeAllActiveEnrichments (boolean, optional, default: false) - Execute all active enrichment integrations
executeAllActiveChecks (boolean, optional, default: false) - Execute all active check integrations
enrichments (array, optional, default: []) - Array of specific enrichment provider codes to execute
checks (array, optional, default: []) - Array of specific check provider codes to execute

{
  executeAllActiveEnrichments?: boolean; // default: false
  executeAllActiveChecks?: boolean; // default: false
  enrichments?: ValidProviderCodesEnum[]; // default: []
  checks?: ValidProviderCodesEnum[]; // default: []
}

Example:

{
  "executeAllActiveEnrichments": false,
  "enrichments": ["br_cpfcnpj_complete_company_enrichment", "br_bdc_shareholders_enrichment"],
  "checks": ["sanctions_check"]
}

autoExecuteIntegrationsShareholders

object

Configure automatic execution of integrations for discovered shareholders/relationships. Useful when using depth > 0. See Provider Codes Reference for available codes.Type: object (optional)Properties:

executeAllActiveEnrichments (boolean, optional, default: false) - Execute all active enrichments on shareholders
executeAllActiveChecks (boolean, optional, default: false) - Execute all active checks on shareholders
enrichments (object, optional) - Specific enrichments by entity type
- company (array, default: []) - Enrichments for company shareholders
- person (array, default: []) - Enrichments for person shareholders
checks (object, optional) - Specific checks by entity type
- company (array, default: []) - Checks for company shareholders
- person (array, default: []) - Checks for person shareholders

{
  executeAllActiveEnrichments?: boolean;
  executeAllActiveChecks?: boolean;
  enrichments?: {
    company?: ValidProviderCodesEnum[];
    person?: ValidProviderCodesEnum[];
  };
  checks?: {
    company?: ValidProviderCodesEnum[];
    person?: ValidProviderCodesEnum[];
  };
}

Example:

{
  "enrichments": {
    "person": ["br_cpfcnpj_complete_person_enrichment"],
    "company": ["br_cpfcnpj_complete_company_enrichment"]
  },
  "checks": {
    "person": ["global_complyadvantage_person_search_check"]
  }
}

Required Enrichment Codes by Country

When using specific enrichment codes (not executeAllActiveEnrichments: true), certain enrichments are mandatory for the automatic creation to work. Without them, the system cannot fetch basic company data from official registries and the request will fail.

Brazil (BR)

Scenario	Required Enrichment Code(s)	Description
Main entity	`br_cpfcnpj_complete_company_enrichment`	Fetches company data from CNPJ/Receita Federal (legal name, trade name, address, industry, etc.)
Shareholders (`depth > 0`)	`br_bdc_shareholders_enrichment`	Required in `autoExecuteIntegrations.enrichments`. Fetches the QSA (Quadro Societário) to discover company shareholders and directors

The shareholder enrichment must be included in the main entity’s autoExecuteIntegrations.enrichments array (not in autoExecuteIntegrationsShareholders), because the system needs to run it on the main company to discover the QSA. The autoExecuteIntegrationsShareholders field controls what enrichments to run on each shareholder after they are created.

Argentina (AR)

Scenario	Required Enrichment Code	Description
Main entity	`ar_nosis_extended_verification_enrichment`	Fetches company data from Nosis (legal name, CUIT status, address, activities, etc.)

Argentina does not support automatic shareholder creation yet. The depth parameter must be 0. If depth > 0 is provided, the request will fail with an error.

attributes

object

Optional - Custom attributes as key-value pairs for the created entity.Applied only to the main entity (the company created), not to shareholders/relationships. Useful for business segments, tags, internal IDs, or any metadata you want to associate at creation time.Structure: object with string keys and values of any type (string, number, boolean, array, etc.).Example:

{
  "businessSegments": ["retail", "fintech"],
  "source": "onboarding_web",
  "tags": ["vip", "high_volume"]
}

Response

success

boolean

Indicates if the company was created successfully

data

object

Complete information about the creation:

entity (object) - The company created with all data
summary (object) - Creation summary
errors (object, optional) - Details of any errors

rulesResult

object

Result of rules execution (only present when rules ran, e.g. when skipRulesExecution is false and riskMatrixId is provided), or null. When present, includes:

success (boolean) - Whether rules executed successfully
rulesTriggered (number) - Number of rules that were triggered
alerts (array) - Alerts generated by rules
riskScore (number) - Final calculated risk score
decision (string) - Final decision (APPROVE, REJECT, HOLD, REVIEW_REQUIRED)
rulesExecutionSummary (object) - Present when rules ran. See below for structure.

rulesExecutionSummary

object

At the root of the response (same as transactions API). Same value as rulesResult.rulesExecutionSummary. Only present when rules ran (e.g. skipRulesExecution is false and risk matrix was executed). Summary of which rules matched (hit) vs did not match (no hit), executed actions, and total score. Omitted when rules did not run. See Rules Execution Summary for the full structure and a complete example.

rulesHit (array) - Rules whose conditions were met. Each item: name, description, score, priority, category, status (e.g. active, shadow), conditions (array of { field, value, operator? }), actions (alerts, suggestion, status, assignedUser).
rulesNoHit (array) - Rules that were evaluated but conditions were not met. Same structure as rulesHit (includes configured actions, not executed).
actionsExecuted (object) - Aggregated executed actions across all rules that hit: alerts, suggestion (BLOCK | SUSPEND | FLAG, highest weight), status (entity status applied, if any), assignedUser ({ userId }, if any), customKeys (array of strings, optional) — custom action keys from matched rules; for integrations/workflows.
totalScore (number) - Sum of score of all rules that hit and are not in shadow status.
