# Screening lists

> The sanctions, PEP and information lists a LENS API screening runs against, how they are grouped, and how to restrict a screening with serviceScope.

Screening runs against the lists enabled for your account. `summary.servicesQueried` in every response shows exactly which lists were used. Use the same spelling when restricting a call with `serviceScope`.

`serviceScope` accepts a list group, a single list name, or a comma-separated combination:

```json theme={null}
{ "serviceScope": "SANCTION" }
{ "serviceScope": "PEP_Edge" }
{ "serviceScope": "SANCTION, PEP_Edge" }
```

Each list belongs to one of three groups, returned as `listType` on every hit.

## SANCTION
