Web SDK

The VX Web SDK unlocks the power of VX for your application. This allows you to set up your verification process one time while empowering you to dynamically change the user's Verification Experience.

What are the steps for getting set up?

1. Create Token

In order for the document scan/upload process to work you must submit a token within the parameters of the veratadModal.
veratadModal = new veratad.modal({
token: "8dfe0180-5389-46d4-a28c-b74061d8e7c3",
});
To get a token you must make an API call with your Veratad username and password. See link below for more details.
Tokens are only valid for 6 hours. It is recommended that you get a new token on each iFrame build.

2. Include CSS, JS and iFrame

Callback

Once a document is uploaded, the callback will fire. The callback will also fire on subsequent status updates. The email or reference values can be used to associate the upload on Veratad's side to a customer/order on your side.
You should always use the backend callback POST to get the official status of the customer/order. The frontend callback in the JS should only be used to message and route your customer on the frontend.
