Send your request with the main quickscreen parameters
You have the option to include the on_success_url parameter in your request to redirect your applicant to your preferred URL when they complete their verification flow.
If you don't provide the on_success_url parameter in your request, your applicant will be directed to a default thank you page when they complete their verification flow.
In the response, find enhanced_identity_verification.
Copy the value of redirect_url.
Share the redirect URL with your applicant.
Ask your applicant to complete the verification flow via the provided URL.
Certn will proceed with the identity verification once your applicant has successfully uploaded their documents.
