Lists

A list can be used to identify individuals who go through the Persona flow by predefined characteristics. For example, these characteristics could be the government ID numbers of known fraudulent individuals or the IP addresses of whitelisted developers.

Persona currently supports a variety of list types:

• Browser fingerprint
• Email address
• Geolocation
• Government ID number
• IP address
• Name
• Phone number

Importing Email Address Lists

If you would like to import many list items at once into an email address list in Persona, first create the list in the Persona dashboard by selecting "Email address" for the list type. Next, you can upload a CSV of your email address data.

API_KEY=YOUR_API_KEY_HERE
LIST_ID=YOUR_LIST_ID_HERE
FILE_PATH=CSV_FILE_PATH

curl -X POST -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -H "Authorization: Bearer $API_KEY" -d'{
  "data": {
    "type": "importer",
    "attributes": {
      "list-id": "$LIST_ID",
      "file": { "data": "'"$(base64 $FILE_PATH)"'", "filename": "$FILE_PATH" }
    }
  }
}' https://withpersona.com/api/v1/importer/list-item/email-addresses

The information we support during bulk import for email address lists are:

• value
• match_type (either 'email_address' or 'domain')

📘

A match_type of 'email_address' will need to match the entire email address of an individual, while a match_type of 'domain' will match on the email address domain of an individual (i.e. all email addresses with domain 'gmail.com').

Example CSV

[email protected],email_address
some-domain.com,domain
