Body parameters

string

default:"NZL"

required

ISO 3166-1 alpha-3 country code for this database service.Example: NZL

string

default:"nzl_zealand_drivers_licence"

required

Array containing this service ID. Pinning the service keeps the request scoped to this exact database.Example: nzl_zealand_drivers_licence

Explicit end-user consent for this service.Example: true

string

default:"John"

required

Given name to validate.Example: John

string

default:"Doe"

required

Family name to validate.Example: Doe

string

default:"1990-01-01"

required

Date of birth in YYYY-MM-DD format.Example: 1990-01-01

string

default:"SAMPLE-DL-12345"

required

Driver licence number.Example: SAMPLE-DL-12345

string

default:"1"

required

driver_license_version value required by this database service.Example: 1

string

default:"user-1234"

Your stable user reference for this person, such as your internal user ID. Didit uses it to link standalone checks to the same end user and reduce duplicate-detection noise.Example: user-1234

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=NZL" \
  -F "services=nzl_zealand_drivers_licence" \
  -F "vendor_data=user-1234" \
  -F "consent=true" \
  -F "first_name=John" \
  -F "last_name=Doe" \
  -F "date_of_birth=1990-01-01" \
  -F "driver_license_number=SAMPLE-DL-12345" \
  -F "driver_license_version=1"

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.

      }
    }
  ]
}

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

        "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": "NZL",
  "match_type": "no_match",
  "validations": [
    {

      "service_name": "New Zealand Drivers Licence (NZTA)",
      "source_data": {
        "date_of_birth": "NO_MATCH",
        "full_name": "NO_MATCH",
        "identification_number": "NO_MATCH"
      },
      "validation": {
        "date_of_birth": "no_match",
        "full_name": "no_match",
        "identification_number": "no_match"
      }
    }
  ]
}

Returned data

The exact fields surfaced in source_data depend on what the registry returns. The generated example for nzl_zealand_drivers_licence currently documents this normalized shape:

date_of_birth
first_name
full_name
identification_number
last_name
name_match_score

Pricing & SLAs

New Zealand Drivers Licence (NZTA) queries are billed only when Didit receives a conclusive result from the validation source.
