Forcing the status and data of the verification session when testing

If you wish to test the behaviour of your integration on the Hybrid Plans and receive certain decisions when testing your integration with Veriff, do the following:

  1. Go to the Verification tab

  2. Select the integration you are testing on the left hand side

Find the verification session you want to change the status for and click OPEN

Click UPDATE STATUS


Here you can select between Approved, Declined or Resubmission. You can also select a reason for Resubmission and Declined.

Once you have selected the status you want to test, click UPDATE

This way you will receive an automated response with the decision you entered. This will work only when using a test integration. Verifications done in your live integrations will be treated normally and these should not be used for testing purposes. Currently, it's not possible to run test sessions when subscribed to Full Auto Plans as they're automatically processed by Veriff.

NB! Please note you can only update the sessions in "Submitted" status. 

What you can test: 

  • User is granted access to your platform after receiving an "Approved" decision

  • User is notified about verification failure after receiving "Resubmission" or "Declined" decision

  • User is prompted to try again after receiving "Resubmission" decision

What if you need to test handling different customer data?

If you wish to receive certain customer or document data along with the verification decision response, you can include this information in the initialization data when creating the verification session. It will be retained throughout the verification and included in the decision webhook response

Example: Receiving an approve for an IE citizen
