Given name to validate.Example: John
last_name
string
default:"Doe"
required
Family name to validate.Example: Doe

Structured residential address object. Use street_1, street_2, city, region, postal_code, and country. A complete legacy address string is still accepted but not recommended.Example: {"street_1":"123 Sample Street","street_2":"Unit 4","city":"Sample City","region":"Sample State","postal_code":"10001","country":"US"}
date_of_birth

Phone number in international format.Example: +15550101000
vendor_data

Input rules & validation notes

  • For address services, send structured address fields instead of a single address string when possible.
  • address.street_1 is the street address, including street number and street type.
  • address.street_2 is apartment, unit, building, floor, or extra address line. Send it only when you have it.
  • address.city is city, suburb, district, locality, or neighborhood.
  • address.region is state, province, region, or town.
  • address.postal_code is postcode or postal code.
  • Address-based database services require at least street address and postal code; 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=GRC" \
  -F "services=grc_credit_bureau" \
  -F "vendor_data=user-1234" \
  -F "first_name=John" \
  -F "last_name=Doe" \
  -F 'address={"street_1":"123 Sample Street","street_2":"Unit 4","city":"Sample City","region":"Sample State","postal_code":"10001","country":"US"}'
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.

Returned data

The exact fields surfaced in source_data depend on what the registry returns. The generated example for grc_credit_bureau currently documents this normalized shape:
  • address
  • date_of_birth
  • first_name
  • identification_number
  • last_name

Pricing & SLAs

Greece Credit Bureau queries are billed only when Didit receives a conclusive result from the validation source.
  • Per-call price: $1.02 USD.
  • Billing: per successful query. You are not charged when the registry is unreachable, when required fields are missing, or when the request is rejected before reaching the source.
  • Latency: typical p95 < 2 s.
  • Availability: 99.9% per quarter on Didit’s side; downstream source availability varies by country and dataset.
