SDK Integration

1. Signup and create a company profile

Signup and create an account in our dashboard page. There, under "Verification Flow Settings" will be able to get your company_app_id and other information and configuration options. You can also create more verification flows under "Company Settings".

2. Frontend: Add SDK on mobile with company app id

iOS
Android
Web

iOS: https://github.com/getsilt/ios-sdk

What happens next on Native Apps integration: On-click mobile sdk will open a webview using the company app id. Once verified the webview will close and return the silt_user_id and a company_app_token. You can see more info in the examples provided in the SDK code.

Here you can see a list of available query parameters.

Query param key Value type Description
company_app_id String (Required) Mandatory field to get the configuration of the company app. Create your company app now from the dashboard.getsilt.com.
Ex: &company_app_id=c11d1782-bcdc-4854-b5c9-32fd160fba8b
customer_user_id String (Recommended) This can be your internal user id, the one in your database. This field can be useful to track which user got verified when you receive a webhook. You can also search by this field in the dashboard.getsilt.com.
Ex: &customer_user_id=172345
user_email String (Optional) Used to prefill the email field in the signup screens. If the user already has a Silt account, he will be prompt to be able to skip taking pictures of the Id we already have.
Ex: &user_email=steve@apple.com
meta JSON (Optional) You can use this field to store information a silt user that you will receive whenever a webhook is sent or in GET /status. Similar to customer_user_id, but without search option.
Ex: &meta={"abc":"123", "grumpy_cat": "miao"} There is no need to encode the url.
redirect_url String (Optional) Important: Use this parameter as the last one of the url you generate. Url that will point the button in the verification complete screen.
Ex: &redirect_url=https://YOURURL.com
hide_redirect_button Boolean (Optional) Used to hide the button of redirect in the verification complete screen. Some customers use it in the iframe integration.
Ex: &hide_redirect_button=true
hide_manual_review Boolean (Optional) Not recomended. This option hides the option of sending a document to manual review.
Ex: &hide_manual_review=true

3. Backend: Webhook to get notifications after user status update

When the status of a document of a user is created or updated, we can notify you to your Backend with a webhook pointing to the endpoint you provide us.

Some cases (less than 5%) require a manual verification. For obvious reasons, we cannot verify users instantly this way. We inform the user by email once we have finished the verification, but you can also be notified once this happens. When you have changed the status of a document we will also make a POST request to the endpoint you provide us. The response will return the same response as /status request under user field, the processing_attempt that triggered the webhook, its status.
