Aadhaar eSign Using Face Auth Setup Guide
Signzy provides Aadhaar eSign by employing the signer's facial features as biometrics to authenticate identity and finalize the signing process. This involves utilizing the signer's face for verification during authentication.
The utilization of Aadhaar eSign with Face Authentication is exclusive to a native mobile application on a mobile device. This functionality is not supported on desktops/laptops through web-based workflows. Additionally, it will not operate on a mobile device when accessed via a web-based workflow.
As of now, Aadhaar eSign with Face Authentication is compatible exclusively with Android mobile devices. iOS, Windows, or any other operating systems on mobile devices do not currently support this feature.
If you require assistance in setting up the service or have any questions, please contact our helpdesk at [email protected] or reach out to your designated Customer Success Manager (CSM).
Here is a step-by-step process to use Aadhaar based eSign using Face Auth.
Step 1 - Utilize the "Initiate Contract API" to create the contract. When employing the Aadhaar eSign Using Face Auth functionality, ensure to include "signatureType": "AADHAARESIGN-FACEAUTH" in the parameters.
Step 2 - Upon generation of the contract through the API, the output will include the Signer ID.
Step 3 - Invoke Signzy's Aadhaar eSign SDK by utilizing this Signer ID.
