Preview access · not provider authentication

The vk_preview_* token belongs to Vinkius preview infrastructure. It lets Claude discover and display the capabilities of Checkr, so you can see the experience inside your AI.

FAQ

Questions Checkr owners ask.

  • 01

    Can I see if a background check has any issues through the agent?

    Yes! Use the get_report_details capability. The agent will return the current status. If the status is 'Consider', it means some records were found that require your review.

  • 02

    How do I invite a new candidate to start their check?

    First, use create_new_candidate to add them to your account, then use start_background_check with the appropriate package name to trigger the invitation email.

  • 03

    Where do I find my Checkr API Secret Key?

    Log in to your Checkr dashboard and navigate to Settings -> API. You can generate and copy your Secret Key from the 'API Keys' section.
