# Submissions

The *Submissions* endpoint allows you to check on the statuses of any records you pass to impact.com via API (using the [Conversions endpoint](/brand-api-reference/brand-api-reference-v12/reference/conversions.md)) or FTP.

The *Submissions* endpoint will tell you if your submissions were received and will provide metadata (like `BatchIds`) about what was received. Information about records, like conversions, modifications, and disposition codes, can all be retrieved and viewed using this endpoint.

The *Submissions* endpoint will also tell you if errors were discovered in the files you send to impact.com. If sending data via API, the error(s) will appear in the [API submission object](broken://pages/bd66f719139bd124c36e81ee223406fac780dd04). If sending data via FTP, you will need to use the [FTP submission error endpoint](broken://pages/bd66f719139bd124c36e81ee223406fac780dd04) to retrieve information about the exact errors discovered in an FTP batch file.

impact.com **highly** recommends you keep backups of your submissions in case a submission was not able to be completed.
