Financial API EndpointsDocument

Create and Verify Document.

Send the document to an external service to have the detailed verified. For example, we could send through the details of a drivers licence to be checked against a national database.

Headers

api_keystringRequired
X-Frankie-CustomerIDstringRequired
Customer ID issued by Frankie Financial. This will never change. Your API key, which is mapped to this identity, will change over time.
X-Frankie-CustomerChildIDstringOptional

If, as a Frankie Customer, you are acting on behalf of your own customers, then you can populate this field with a Frankie-assigned ID.

Note: If using a CustomerChildID, you will also need a separate api_key for each child.

Any documents, checks, entities that are created when this field has been populated will now be tied to this CustomerID + CustomerChildID combination. Just as Customers cannot see data created by other Customers, so too a Customer’s Children will not be able to see each other’s data.

A Customer can see the documents/entities and checks of all their Children.

X-Frankie-BackgroundintegerOptional

If this header parameter is supplied and set to 1, then the request will not wait for the process to finish, and will return a 202 if there are no obvious errors in the input. The request will then run in the background and send a notification back to the customer. See out callback API for details on this.

See more details here: https://docs.frankieone.com/docs/asynchronous-calls-backgrounding-processes

X-Frankie-ChannelstringOptional

Open string that can be used to define the “channel” the request comes in from. It can potentially be used in routing and risk calculations upon request. Default values that can be used are:

  • api
  • portal
  • smartui

Any alphanumeric string is supported though. Anything over 64 characters will be truncated.
