Turn a raw provider result into a Green, Yellow, or Red outcome.
Connecting a 3rd-party provider on its own doesn't change anyone's score. A provider only affects scoring once you've mapped its possible results to one of your own Risk categories. Until a signal is mapped, it's informational only.
Worked example
Say you've connected OpenCorporates. It can return a few different results for a company lookup, including "Company not found" and "Company inactive/dissolved". Neither of those affects scoring by itself — you decide what they mean for your risk appetite:
- "Company not found" → mapped to Yellow
- "Company inactive/dissolved" → mapped to Yellow or Red, depending on how strict you want to be
A sanctions hit from Sanctions.io or ComplyAdvantage, by contrast, is usually mapped straight to Red for most organizations — but the choice is always yours to make.
Setting up a mapping
You can only map signals for a provider that's already connected. See the setup guide for OpenCorporates, Sanctions.io, ComplyAdvantage, or TRM Labs if you haven't yet.
On the connected provider's card in Integrations, open its signal mapping. You'll see every possible result that provider can return.
For each result, choose one of your existing Risk categories (Green, Yellow, Red, or any custom category you've set up) — or leave it unmapped.
Mappings take effect on the next lookup for that provider. Existing scored records aren't retroactively rescored.
