Query Parameters

job_id

string

required

The unique identifier of the job to retrieve.

include_check_result_ids

boolean

default:"false"

If true, includes only the IDs of check results. Cannot be used with include_check_results.

jsonpath_query

string

Optional JSONPath query to filter and extract specific fields from the response. Useful for reducing payload size when include_check_results=true returns large amounts of data. See Filtering Check Results below for examples.

Filtering Check Results

When using include_check_results=true, the response can contain large amounts of data. Use the jsonpath_query parameter to filter and extract only the data you need.

JSONPath Syntax

The API uses JSONPath syntax for filtering. Here are common patterns:

Filter by field value: $.check_results[?(@.field=='value')]
Get all items: $.check_results[*]
Extract specific field: $.check_results[*].field_name
Nested field access: $.check_results[*].payload.nested_field

Common Use Cases

curl -X GET 'https://api.parcha.ai/api/v1/getJobById?job_id=YOUR_JOB_ID&include_check_results=true&jsonpath_query=$.check_results[?(@.passed==false)]' \
-H 'Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY'

Returns: Array of failed check results

Notes

The include_check_result_ids and include_check_results parameters are mutually exclusive. Using both will result in a 400 Bad Request error.

Access to job details is restricted. The API will return a 401 Unauthorized error if the user doesn’t have access to the specified agent.

If the job is not found, a 404 Not Found error will be returned.

This endpoint provides a comprehensive view of a job’s status and results, allowing for detailed tracking and analysis of the KYB/KYC process.
