API Documentation

API documentation is viewable on our GitHub Page under the API tab.

Usage

To use this API, first create a new WebServiceClient object. The constructor takes your MaxMind user ID, license key, and an optional options array as arguments. For example:

WebServiceClient client = new WebServiceClient.Builder(6, "ABCD567890").build();

Then create a new Transaction object. This represents the transaction that you are sending to minFraud. The class is instantiated using an inner builder class, Transaction.Builder. Each builder method takes a corresponding request model object. Each of these objects is similarly built up with corresponding builder classes. For example:

Transaction transaction = new Transaction.Builder(
        new Device.Builder(InetAddress.getByName("1.1.1.1")).build()
    ).email(
        new Email.Builder()
            .address("fraud@ster.com")
            .build()
    ).build();

After creating the transaction object, send a Score request by calling the score method:

ScoreResponse score = client.score(transaction);

an Insights request by calling insights method:

InsightsResponse insights = client.insights(transaction);

an Factors request by calling factors method:

FactorsResponse factors = client.factors(transaction);

If the request succeeds, a model object will be returned for the endpoint. If the request fails, an exception will be thrown.

See the API documentation for more details.

Exceptions

Runtime exceptions:

IllegalArgumentException - This will be thrown when an illegal argument is passed to a builder method. For instance, a country code that is not two capital letters.

Checked exceptions:

AuthenticationException - This will be thrown when the server is unable to authenticate the request, e.g., if the license key or user ID is invalid.
InsufficientFundsException - This will be thrown when your account is out of funds.
InvalidRequestException - This will be thrown when the server rejects the request for another reason such as invalid JSON in the POST.
PermissionRequiredException - This will be thrown when permission is required to use the service.
MinFraudException - This will be thrown when the server returns an unexpected response. This also serves as the base class for the above checked exceptions.
HttpException -This will be thrown when an unexpected HTTP error occurs such as an internal server error or other unexpected status code.

Example

Transaction request = new Transaction.Builder(
        new Device.Builder(InetAddress.getByName("1.1.1.1"))
            .acceptLanguage("en-US")
