Create a KYC request

Create a KYC request

Request

Creates a KYC request.

The customer is redirected to the kycGatherer link. After the customer completes the KYC process, they are redirected back to the redirectUrl link.

Corresponding webhooks, such as: KYC document accepted and KYC document rejected, are sent to the subscribers.

When the complete list of documents is received and accepted, the KYC request fulfilled webhook is sent to subscribers.

If a credit-file-proof request is successful, it returns a decision value of single-source or dual-source. The corresponding identity-proof and address-proof documents are not requested.
