IDV Module
The IDV Module provides an all-in-one solution for implementing OCR and Biometrics in your application’s onboarding flow. It seamlessly integrates with vendor SDKs and automatically handles all necessary API calls between FrankieOne and vendor systems.
Sample Implementation
If you use daon, you have to explicitly define the vendor name in provider object.
see: Multi IDV, implementation section.
Define specific vendor at runtime
You can specify the identity verification provider at runtime by passing the provider option when initializing the IDV flow.

Event System
The IDV module uses an event-driven architecture to communicate state changes and results.
Core Events
Emitted when IDV is successfully mounted
Signals successful information detection
Result Events
The results event provides comprehensive verification outcomes, including document data and entity references.
Input Required Events
For Incode integrations, the ‘INTERRUPTED’ status typically indicates missing camera permissions.
Error Handling
For Incode integrations, refer to the Incode documentation for detailed error payload information.
Implementation Tips
- Always test the flow on both desktop and mobile devices
- Implement proper cleanup on component unmount
- Consider implementing retry logic for failed verifications
- Store the entityId for future reference
Typical Vendor Flows
Onfido
Incode
Daon
Onfido provides a complete in-browser verification experience without requiring device switching.
Best Practices
- Implement comprehensive error handling
- Log errors for debugging
- Provide user-friendly error messages
- Guide users through the verification process
- Handle device transitions smoothly
- Provide clear instructions at each step
