SDK guide

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

Note: After you successfully onboard your organisation and generate the SDK ID for 'Age estimation' application, please contact us to have it whitelisted. This is necessary for use with our dedicated endpoint for this integration.

Face Capture

For optimal face capture, Yoti provides the Face Capture Module (FCM) which is designed to capture optimal images meeting the requirements of the API. This is available as a Native .Net package.

Native face capture

Capture your images by using our Face Capture Module (FCM).

Info: We also provide React & JavaScript Face capture module for Web-based clients.


Integration

Install the SDK

To simply the integration process, Yoti provides SDKs to integrate with our API. These 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>3.5.1</version>
</dependency>

// If you are using Gradle, add the following dependency:
compile group: 'com.yoti', name: 'yoti-sdk-api', version: '3.5.1'
// 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

Create a request

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 = {
AGE_LIVENESS: '/age-antispoofing',
};

const data = {
img: 'base64img',
};

const request = new RequestBuilder()
.withBaseUrl('https://api.yoti.com/ai/v1/self-checkout')

.withMethod('POST')
.withHeader('X-Yoti-Auth-Id', '<YOTI_CLIENT_SDK_ID>')
.withHeader('Terminal-Id', '<TERMINAL_ID>')
.withHeader('Session-Id', '<SESSION_ID>') // Optional
.build();

const response = request.execute();
String AGE_LIVENESS = "/age-antispoofing";

JsonObject body = new JsonObject();
body.put("img", imageBytes);
byte[] payload = body.encode().getBytes();
