  description: >-
    The Risk Cloud API is a collection of RESTful API endpoints that empower you
    and your team to directly integrate, automate, and build with the Risk
    Cloud. Risk Cloud API endpoint payloads are JSON based, with some endpoints
    supporting exports in CSV and XSLX formats for flexible integration.


    This API documentation showcases our Risk Cloud API v1, containing a variety
    of endpoints with continued support for enabling integrations with the Risk
    Cloud.
