Enroll User Credentials from Selfie Capture

If a Selfie was previously captured, such as for performing a 1:N search, the same data can be used to enroll the user’s biometrics into the authID platform.

Two API calls are required to turn Selfie data into Account Biometric Credential:

• Retrieve TempId: Use the Get Selfie Transaction TempId endpoint to obtain the TempId of the storage location for the captured Selfie data.
• Create Biometric Credential: Pass the retrieved TempId to the Create Proofed Account Biometric Credential endpoint. The Selfie stored in the TempId is used to enroll the user’s biometrics.

🚧

Selfie Storage will Expire

The data stored in TempId expires within 72 hours. Attempting to enroll account biometrics after the expiration—or when the personally identifiable information (PII) in the TempId has been removed—will result in an error.
