POST /api/v1/zoloz/connect/initialize

The ZOLOZ Connect initialize API is used to initialize the face verification process in ZOLOZ. A unique transaction ID is generated for the process and used in all the subsequent interactions with the ZOLOZ server. This API is not idempotent.

Structure

Request parameters

Field name	Data type	Max length	Description
bizId	String	32	Required. A unique business ID for tracing purposes. For example, the sequence ID from the merchant's business-related database. Note: The ZOLOZ server does not perform uniqueness check on the value of this field. For better tracking, it is strongly recommended to enable the merchant server to guarantee the uniqueness of the business ID.
metaInfo	String	512	Required. The meta information about the SDK and the user's device. The value of this field is returned from the ZOLOZ SDK in JSON string format, for example: `"{\"apdidToken\":\"69b74bfe-bf7f-4d3b-ac59-907ee09e7955\",\"appName\":\"com.zoloz.atomic.client\",\"appVersion\":\"1.0.9\",\"bioMetaInfo\":\"3.46.0:2916352,0\",\"deviceModel\":\"MI 6\",\"deviceType\":\"android\",\"osVersion\":\"9\",\"zimVer\":\"1.0.0\"}"`. Note: Do not modify the returned value as it only needs to be passed through directly.
userId	String	64	Required. Merchant user ID, or other identifiers that can be used to identify a specific user. For example, mobile phone number, email address and so on. It is strongly recommended to pre-desensitize the value of the userId field; for example, by hashing the value.
sceneCode	String	64	Optional. Specifies the business scene for data analysis purpose. If you want to distinguish the data performance of different scenes, it is recommended to set the sceneCode field to different values according to your business purpose; for example, login, riskVerify, payment, changePassword.
serviceLevel	String	32	Optional. Specifies the service level for face liveness detection. The following values are supported: `CONNECT0001` : This level performs liveness detection. As the UI does not require the user to jump to a new page, it causes fewer user drop offs. This is usually used in the scenarios which require a high pass rate. `CONNECT0002` : Default value. This level performs anti-spoofing. The ZOLOZ SDK performs an anti-spoofing check with the blink detection method. `CONNECT0003` : This level performs anti-spoofing. The ZOLOZ SDK performs anti-spoofing check with the multi-action detection method. Note: H5 mode connect does not support serviceLevel.
operationMode	String	32	Optional. Specifies the operation mode where the identity proofing process runs. The following values are supported: `CLOSED`: All the algorithms and risk control rules are not applied. You can use this operation mode in the test phase so that the algorithms and risk controls rules do not affect the test process. `STANDARD`: Default value. A standard recommended level is applied. `LOOSE`: A relatively looser level is applied. You can use this operation mode in low-risk scenarios. `STRICT`: A relatively stricter level is applied. You can use this operation mode in high-risk scenarios. Note: H5 Mode connect does not support operationMode
h5ModeConfig	H5ModeConfig		Optional. Specifies the configuration settings for H5 mode. For more information, refer below to the h5ModeConfig section.
productConfig	ProductConfig		Optional. Specifies finer controls on the Connect product. For more information, see productConfig. Note: If productConfig, serviceLevel and operationMode are set together at the same time, neither the serviceLevel nor the operationMode will take effect. This is due to these parameters being in conflict. Instead, ZOLOZ will only read productConfig.

Response parameters

Field name	Data type	Description
result	Result	Required. The API request result, which contains information about the result of the API request, such as status and error codes.
transactionId	String	Optional. A unique transaction ID that is generated by the ZOLOZ server for the face verification process. This ID will be used as an input parameter for the Connect checkresult API request. Note: when an error occurs during the process, for example, invalid argument, no transaction ID is returned.
clientCfg	String	Optional. The client configuration information, including parameters about SDK connection and behavior. The value of this field is specified only when the result.resultStatus field is `"S"`.

Result

Result process logic

For different request results, different actions are to be performed. See the following for details:

If the value of the result.resultStatus is S , the ZOLOZ Connect initialize API is invoked successfully and a unique transaction ID is returned.
If the value of the result.resultStatus is F , the invocation of the ZOLOZ Connect initialize API fails. Check the error code and message for more information about the possible reasons.

Common error codes

For the full list of common error codes, see the Common error codes section in the Error handling topic.

API-specific error codes

The following table shows the possible error codes that are specific for the Connect initialize API.

resultCode	resultStatus	Description
SUCCESS	S	The API call is successful.
UNABLE_GET_IMAGE	F	No reference source is found (caused by attempting to verify before enroll).
HIGH_RISK	F	High risks are detected. The user account is strategically cooled down by the risk engine.
ACCOUNT_SERVICE_SUSPEND	F	The user account is blacklisted by the risk engine.
DEVICE_NOT_SUPPORT	F	The device type is not supported.
OS_NOT_SUPPORT	F	The operating system of the device is not supported.
SDKVERSION_NOT_SUPPORT	F	The version of the ZOLOZ SDK is not supported.
INVALID_ARGUMENT	F	Input parameters are invalid. For more information about which parameter is invalid, check the result message or the related log.
SYSTEM_ERROR	F	Other internal errors. For more information about the error details, check the result message that is returned and the related log.

Sample

For different integration modes, the request structures are a little different. When the connect process is initiated in the H5 mode, additionally, an object called h5ModeConfig must be specified.

Refer to the following two request samples for the detailed information.

h5ModeConfig

The following table shows the fields that can be specified in the h5ModeConfig data model.

Field name	Data type	Max length	Description
state	String	128	Optional. An identifier that is used to recover the customer's context. You can set this field to any String value. The value is then passed as a parameter when the ZOLOZ SDK calls back to the merchant's application. If the value is not set, the value of the transactionId field is used.
completeCallbackUrl	String	128	Required. Specifies the callback URL where the browser is redirected when the whole identity proofing process is completed.
interruptCallbackUrl	String	128	Required. Specifies the callback URL where the browser is redirected when the process is interrupted.
locale	String	16	Optional. Language of the web page, only supports: en/ id/ zh-CN at the moment. The default language is en.
isIframe	String	1	Optional. If the Web Page needs to be open in Iframe, this param should be set as Y. The default value is N. Supported Value: Y / N
uiCfg	String	256	Optional. Custom UI configurations in the JSON string format. Some example fields that are supported: titlebarbgcolor, titlebartextcolor, and buttoncolor, etc. Such as in:"{\"titleBackgroudColor\": \"#0064FF\",\"titleTextColor\": \"#FFFFFF\",\"topTipColor\": \"#0064FF\"}". Supports the configuration of related JSON files on the portal.

productConfig

The following table shows the fields that can be specified in the productConfig data model.

Field name	Data type	Max length	Description
livenessMode	String	10	Optional. Specifies the liveness level for face liveness detection check. The following values are supported: `CLOSED`: All algorithms are not applied. You can use this liveness detection mode in the test phase so that the algorithms and risk control rules do not affect the testing process. `STANDARD`: Default value. A standard recommended level is applied. `LOOSE`: A relatively looser level is applied. You can use this liveness detection mode in low-risk scenarios. `STRICT`: A relatively stricter level is applied. You can use this liveness detection mode in high-risk scenarios.
