Checkr Tenant API (1.0)
The Tenant Monolith API is a RESTful service that powers tenant screening workflows at Checkr. It uses resource-oriented URLs, supports HTTPS for authentication and requests, and returns JSON responses.
The Checkr Tenant API lets property managers and landlords order tenant screenings, manage rental properties, and retrieve screening reports programmatically. It is organized around four core resources:
- Properties — rental addresses you screen applicants for.
- Applicants — people being screened.
- Orders — a screening request placed for an applicant against a property.
- Reports — the results returned by an order, broken down by check type.
Reports are produced asynchronously. You can either listen for report.* webhooks or poll GET /orders/{id}/report. All resources are isolated per environment via test and live API keys — see the Testing guide for how mode isolation works and which scenarios are available against test keys.
