Indicators
Indicators help the relying service understand what checks have been performed on an identity evidence and why an identity evidence has been assigned a status and a score, such as when a fraud is detected or a document has expired.
Each indicator is associated with a status.
Indicator | Status |
|---|---|
UNVERIFIED | The control has not been performed |
OK | The control is successful |
WARNING | The control is performed and there may be a problem with this evidence |
FAILED | The evidence failed to pass the control |
Indicators are processed by the service to score the evidence and detect frauds.
Indicators that cause the evidence to fail (blocking indicators) appear in the REST API responses provided to the relying service back end. All indicators are available in the proof file at the end of the proofing session.
