Standalone Parent Verification

k-ID supports the ability to verify a parent within a custom web user experience outside of the k-ID Family Portal. There are two verification APIs provided that enable this, /verification/generate-url and /verification/register-webhook.

To verify a parent, an iframe needs to be displayed in a web page using the URL returned from the verificationURL property of the response from /verification/generate-url. This will show either the built-in k-ID parent verification, which requests either ID documents or a credit card, or it will show KWS verification if it is configured for the k-ID Product. When a parent successfully completes verification, the webhook specified in the /verification/register-webhook call will be invoked, which will allow the standalone application to move forward with a verified parent.

The area in the red box below is the iframe that will display in a custom web page when displaying the iframe URL from /verification/generate-url.
