Input rules & validation notes

Send the fields listed above exactly as captured from the user or document.
Didit validates required fields before calling the database. Requests rejected before source lookup are not charged.

How to call it

curl -X POST "https://verification.didit.me/v3/database-validation/" \
  -H "x-api-key: YOUR_API_KEY" \
  -F "issuing_state=AUS" \
  -F "services=aus_marriage_certificate" \
  -F "vendor_data=user-1234" \
  -F "consent=true" \
  -F "first_name=John" \
  -F "last_name=Doe" \
  -F "first_partner_name=Jamie" \
  -F "last_partner_name=Example" \
  -F "marriage_certificate_number=SAMPLE-MARRIAGE-12345" \
  -F "birth_registration_number=SAMPLE-BIRTH-12345" \
  -F "birth_registration_state=Sample State" \
  -F "birth_registration_date=1990-01-01"

Every successful call returns HTTP 200. The outcome_code field tells you what actually happened — distinguishing, for example, a real biometric mismatch (BIOMETRIC_NO_MATCH) from a selfie that could not be read (BIOMETRIC_IMAGE_UNUSABLE). The status shown is the default feature status; your configured Partial Match / No Match actions can override it.

MATCH — The registry confirmed the identity and every checked field matched.

{
  "request_id": "req_01H…",
  "status": "Approved",
  "issuing_state": "AUS",
  "match_type": "full_match",
  "validations": [
    {
      "outcome_code": "MATCH",
      "service_id": "aus_marriage_certificate",
      "service_name": "Australia - DVS – Marriage Certificate",
      "source_data": {
        "first_name": "John",
        "identification_number": "SAMPLE-ID-12345",
        "last_name": "Doe"
      },
      "validation": {
        "full_name": "full_match",
        "identification_number": "full_match"
      }
    }
  ]
}

PARTIAL_MATCH — The identification number was found but one or more personal fields (usually name or date of birth) did not fully match.

{
  "request_id": "req_01H…",
  "status": "In Review",
  "issuing_state": "AUS",
  "match_type": "partial_match",
  "validations": [
    {
      "outcome_code": "PARTIAL_MATCH",
      "service_id": "aus_marriage_certificate",
      "service_name": "Australia - DVS – Marriage Certificate",
      "source_data": {
        "first_name": "John",
        "identification_number": "SAMPLE-ID-12345",
        "last_name": "Doe"
      },
      "validation": {
        "full_name": "no_match",
        "identification_number": "full_match"
      }
    }
  ]
}

NO_MATCH — The registry returned no match for the submitted data.

{
  "request_id": "req_01H…",
  "status": "Declined",
  "issuing_state": "AUS",
  "match_type": "no_match",
  "validations": [
    {
      "outcome_code": "NO_MATCH",
      "service_id": "aus_marriage_certificate",
      "service_name": "Australia - DVS – Marriage Certificate",
      "source_data": {
        "full_name": "NO_MATCH",
        "identification_number": "NO_MATCH"
      },
      "validation": {
        "full_name": "no_match",
        "identification_number": "no_match"
      }
    }
  ]
}
