Common Use Cases

Automated Compliance Onboarding

Automatically screen new user wallet addresses against global sanctions lists during the KYC/AML onboarding process to prevent high-risk actors from accessing your platform.

Real-Time Transaction Monitoring

Integrate screening into your transaction pipeline to instantly validate outgoing or incoming transfers, automatically flagging or halting any movement involving sanctioned entities.

Institutional Risk Management

Enhance your institutional custody workflows by adding a mandatory Chainalysis Sanctions check before any large-scale asset movements are finalized.

Automated Regulatory Reporting

Combine screening results with B3OS logging to automatically generate audit trails and compliance reports whenever a flagged address is detected in your ecosystem.

Connector Notes

  • Create the connector from a trusted B3OS organization before publishing workflows that call external accounts.
  • Keep OAuth tokens, API keys, bot tokens, channel IDs, and account IDs in connector settings or workflow props, not in reusable public template text.
  • Test with the visual editor or POST /v1/actions/{type}/test before routing production traffic.

FAQ

B3OS uses the Chainalysis Sanctions Screening API to automatically cross-reference blockchain addresses against global sanctions lists like OFAC, EU, and UN. You can trigger this action as part of a larger automated workflow whenever a new transaction or address is detected.

If no specific connector is attached within your B3OS workflow, the system is designed to automatically fall back to the CHAINALYSIS_SANCTIONS_API_KEY environment variable to ensure uninterrupted service.

The integration screens addresses against major international regulatory lists, including OFAC (US), the EU sanctions list, UN sanctions, and other critical global watchlists provided by Chainalysis.

Yes. You can build conditional logic in B3OS so that if an address is flagged by the Chainalysis Sanctions API, the workflow can automatically freeze a transaction, alert your compliance team, or block a user account.

Absolutely. By using B3OS to automate the Chainalysis Sanctions API, exchanges can handle massive transaction volumes with sub-second screening latency, ensuring compliance at scale.
