# AML Screening

> Screen customers against global sanctions lists, PEPs, and adverse media using iDenfy AML API with single checks and ongoing monitoring.

<Warning>
  **AML v2 compatibility is maintained but not permanent.** v2 integrations continue to work while you plan migration. For long-term stability, we recommend moving to v3 endpoints. See the [Migration Guide](/aml/migration-guide) for what to change.
</Warning>

The AML Screening API lets you run sanctions, PEP, and adverse media checks against persons and companies, and set up ongoing monitoring with automated daily alerts.

## Authentication

All AML endpoints use HTTP Basic Authentication with your API key pair:

```
Authorization: Basic {base64(apiKey:apiSecret)}
```
