Upload a customer supporting document

Request

Attaches a supporting document to a customer and starts its transfer into Resolve's document validation service. Use this to hand Resolve buyer data you already hold — bank statements, financial statements, credit references, or payment history — so it can be used in a credit decision.

Create the customer first; this endpoint is separate from customer creation and belongs to the Partners API. MCP clients use partner_create_customer_document with the returned customer ID as merchant_customer_id. In ChatGPT, attach the file as download_url and supply filename and filetype separately. See the Partner MCP tool reference.

The transfer mode is determined by the request shape:

  • Omit download_url and Resolve returns a presigned S3 upload_url (transfer_method=presigned_upload). PUT the document bytes to that URL with the headers in upload_headers before upload_expires_at.
  • Supply download_url and Resolve queues a background download job (transfer_method=download_url). There is nothing to upload.

Documents are validated asynchronously, so a successful response means the document was accepted for transfer, not that it passed validation. Poll #fetchCustomer for the resulting credit_status and limit changes.

Fulfilling a banking-data request. When a credit decision is waiting on bank statements, pass the open request's ID as additional_data_request_id alongside a bank_statements upload. Resolve fulfills that request once the document validates. The field is only accepted with document_type bank_statements, and is rejected with 422 if it does not identify a banking-data request on this customer that is still awaiting a response.

Validation notes:

  • bank_statements must be PDFs; other document types also accept PNG, JPEG, CSV, XLS, and XLSX
  • filename must include an extension matching filetype
  • download_url, when provided, must use http or https, carry no embedded credentials, and resolve to a public host

For remote downloads, queue dispatch runs after the document row is committed. A dispatch failure at that point does not roll the document back — the response is still successful and queue_dispatch_status comes back as failed.

Security
bearerAuth or basicAuth
Path
customer_idstringrequired

ID of the customer the supporting document belongs to

Bodyapplication/jsonrequired

The supporting document to attach to the customer.

The transfer mode is determined by the request shape:

  • Omit download_url and Resolve returns a presigned S3 upload URL for you to PUT the bytes to.
  • Supply download_url and Resolve queues a background job to fetch the document from your host.

Validation notes:

  • filename must include an extension, and for known MIME types that extension must match filetype
  • document_type bank_statements is restricted to application/pdf
  • additional_data_request_id is only accepted when document_type is bank_statements
  • download_url, when provided, must use http or https and resolve to a public host
  • Unknown fields are rejected with 400
