Frequently Asked Questions
Will I be able to access the registration records of individuals not associated with my firm?
The registration API allows you to only see data associated with your firm.
If an API providing inter-firm individual data is an important use case for your firm, or for your customers that are FINRA member firms, we encourage you to submit feedback via the Support Center and select the API Candidate category for the ticket. Please provide as much detailed information on the use case as possible, including contact information, as this will help us prioritize new API candidates.
FINRA is also exploring the opportunity to provide a Pre-Registration API to address use cases around automated onboarding of registered representatives.
What are the requirements to get access to production registration data?
