What it returns
Screen a list of names against the five main official sanctions lists in one call, and get a scored match for every hit.
One row per match: the name you sent, a **score from 0 to 100**, the name or alias that matched, the list and its reference number, entry type (individual, entity, vessel, aircraft), sanctions programs or regimes, dates of birth, nationalities, countries in listed addresses, listing date, the publisher's remarks and up to 25 aliases. Names with no match get a single `"matched": false` row listing the lists checked, so each run is also a record of what was screened.
