When setting the service name you must view the data coverage section (linked above) and use the country name for your query. Therefore, in the majority of cases the service name will be something like:

AgeMatch5.0.Canada

But in certain cases where a country name has spaces i.e. the United Kingdom the service name will be like:

AgeMatch5.0.UK

You will find all of the countries where there is an exception in the data coverage section of the documentation.

Action and Detail Responses

The following are all values that will be returned in the result object of the response.

Action	Detail	Description
FAIL	NO MATCH	No matching identity found in the data sources
FAIL	AGE NOT VERIFIED	Target found, but no DOB information available or the DOB did not match
FAIL	POSSIBLE MINOR	Input DOB is under the age to check
FAIL	SERVICE CANNOT BE COMPLETED	The underlying data sources are having a processing issue. Resubmit this query at a later time
PASS	ALL CHECKS PASSED	Target was found and meets the age requirement

Service Testing

When the test_key is provided the system will dynamically drop the live data sources and use the testing database. These transactions are free of charge. To access live data do not send this attribute. Here are available test cases for the international service:

test key	description
international_pass	Will return a PASS - ALL CHECKS PASSED result
international_fail_no_match	Will return a FAIL - NO MATCH result
international_fail_age_not_verified	Will return a FAIL - AGE NOT VERIFIED result
international_fail_possible_minor	Will return a FAIL - POSSIBLE MINOR result
international_fail_cannot_be_completed	Will return a FAIL - SERVICE CANNOT BE COMPELTED result

The above are all "canned responses", so the target input will not matter if a valid test key is provided.

Rules

AgeMatch International will process with the following rules by default

The base ruleset will return a PASS when:

• A match is found

• The target meets the minimum age requirement

The base ruleset will return a FAIL when:

• No Match Found

• The target's age has not been verified

• The service can not be completed
