The request body should have the following parameters:
{
"id": "08000000000",
"verification_consent": true
}
The fields in this request include:
Field | Data Type | Description |
---|---|---|
id | String | Required - the ID number |
verification_consent | Boolean | Required - this indicates that subject has given consent to perform this verification. This must be true for the check to be performed. |
The response to this request would look like this:
{
"status": true,
"message": "Phone number verified successfully",
"data": {
"reference": "VR-HtMZpQfPmYc4Xby5N",
