puts response.read_bodyhttps://<name>.auth.didit.me, and never take your Didit API key.404. A pending step-up reads expired once its 30 minutes pass.Authorizations
The person's access token from POST /token/: an ES256 JWT with header typ: at+jwt, valid for at most 5 minutes. Not your Didit API key.
Path Parameters
The id from POST /step-up/, also the step_up query parameter on your return_to. A value that is not a UUID gets a 404 page, not JSON.
Response
The step-up.
A verification the person has to pass before the action.

The rule that asked for it. When several apply, the one with the strongest method.
payout, device, bank, contact "payout"
What the person does: liveness, selfie (liveness matched to the face Didit already holds) or full_id (document and selfie). When Didit holds no face for the person yet, selfie becomes full_id once they open verification_url.
liveness, selfie, full_id "selfie"
Act only on approved. review waits for your team's review. declined is not final while verification_url works: the person can try again, and the step-up returns to pending. superseded means another check took over its verification, or the result was not for this step-up: create a new one.
pending, review, approved, declined, expired, superseded "pending"
The level the verification reached, once approved.

The payout amount, two decimals.

null
30 minutes after creation. Reading a step-up first collects any result its verification reached, so it can still read approved, review or declined after this time; one still pending reads expired.
