Steps

  1. Create a workflow in Entrust Workflow Studio (formerly Onfido Studio) that chains a Document Capture task to a Facial Similarity task; note the workflow_id for API calls.
  2. Generate a short-lived SDK token by calling the Entrust Identity Verification API with your API token (Authorization: Token token=YOUR_TOKEN) and specifying the applicant_id and the workflow_id.
  3. Initialize the Entrust Web or Mobile SDK with the sdk_token to present the capture interface to the user; the SDK handles document type guidance and image quality checks.
  4. On SDK completion, call GET /v3.6/workflow_runs/{workflow_run_id} to retrieve the workflow result including document data extraction and biometric match output.
  5. Consume the decision payload — approved, declined, or review — and the sub-results for each task to populate your onboarding decision.
  6. Configure webhook delivery in the Entrust dashboard to receive workflow.finished events for asynchronous processing; verify the X-SHA2-Signature header on incoming payloads.
