Anti-spoofing

AI Tools

Once you've set up your organisation account on the Yoti Hub, you’re ready to start integrating with the Anti-spoofing API.

Before you start
Please have a read of our image requirements.

Face Capture

For optimal results, Yoti provides and recommends to use the Yoti Face Capture modules, which are designed to capture optimal images meeting the requirements of the API. This is available as a Native package, and Web implementation.

Strongly recommend
Get better results by using our Face capture module.

Create a request

After completing the Yoti onboarding, you will need to complete authentication for the API by using the Yoti SDK to simplify the process. The Yoti SDKs are available via popular dependency management systems.

npm install -S -E yoti
// If you are using Maven, add the following dependency: <dependency> <groupId>com.yoti</groupId> <artifactId>yoti-sdk-api</artifactId> <version>3.0.0</version> </dependency> // If you are using Gradle, add the following dependency: compile group: 'com.yoti', name: 'yoti-sdk-api', version: '3.0.0'
// Get the Yoti PHP SDK library via a Composer package composer require yoti/yoti-php-sdk
pip install yoti
// To install the Yoti NuGet package you will need to install NuGet. // To import the latest Yoti SDK into your project, enter the following // command from NuGet Package Manager Console in Visual Studio: Install-Package Yoti // For other installation methods, see https://www.nuget.org/packages/Yoti
// As of version 2.4.0, modules are used. This means it's not necessary to get a copy or fetch all dependencies // as instructed below, as the Go toolchain will fetch them as necessary. // You can simply add a `require github.com/getyoti/yoti-go-sdk/v2` to go.mod. // To download and install the Yoti SDK and its dependencies, run the following command from your terminal: go get "github.com/getyoti/yoti-go-sdk/v3"
gem install yoti # The gem provides a configuration generator for Ruby on Rails: rails generate yoti:install

Endpoint

Description

https://api.yoti.com/ai/v1/antispoofing

Use Yoti's anti-spoofing check as a standalone product.

Once you have added the Yoti SDK dependency to your project, you can use it to build and send your request. See the code snippets below for examples.

const PATHS = { LIVENESS: '/antispoofing', }; const data = { img: 'base64img', }; const request = new RequestBuilder() .withBaseUrl('https://api.yoti.com/ai/v1') .withPemFilePath('<YOTI_KEY_FILE_PATH>') .withEndpoint(PATHS.LIVENESS) // optionally PATHS.AGE or PATHS.LIVENESS .withPayload(new Payload(data)) .withMethod('POST') .withHeader('X-Yoti-Auth-Id', '<YOTI_CLIENT_SDK_ID>') .build();

This endpoint will return an anti-spoofing result.

Help If integrating into a non-browser client, we recommend contacting clientsupport@yoti.com for additional support.

Terminal integrations

Good to know
This is not live yet but will be going live soon. Please contact us if this interests you.

Optionally, additional headers may be provided to the request to allow Yoti to track error responses coming from a particular machine. This would typically be used in a non-browser client scenario, such as an ePOS terminal where each individual machine must be registered by the business.

In order to do this, the following headers should be applied:

Header

Description

Terminal-Id

Unique ID per machine. Mandatory for non-browser integrations.

Session-Id

May be provided to demonstrate multiple attempts are from a single user transaction.
