March 2022
Launch of Biometrid 2.2.0
Important: This update has breaking changes ⚠️
In this new version, we are adding new features that makes it faster and simpler to build identity verification journeys and improve the developer’s work.
Get in touch with us to know more about how to update to the new version.
✨ NEW
Feature – Conditional Automated Flow
Upgraded the Flow Builder with a Decision Tree
We are introducing an improved version of the Flow Builder tool that allows you to add conditions and actions based on predetermined triggers. This will help you build complex flows that automate decisions based on the conditions you set up (specific country regulation, risk level, technical requirement).
For example, you could add a trigger that is the “issuing country of the ID document”. Based on this trigger you can set up two different conditions:
- If the “issuing country” is Portugal, then the next action is a digital signature using the National Digital Mobile Key.
- For the rest of the “issuing countries”, the next action is a digital signature using One-Time-Password.
The Decision Tree also allows you to add rules for which providers are being used, and automate the actions with start, finish, repeat, of send notification triggers. Learn more about the Decision Tree here.
✨ NEW
Feature – Apps feature to make it easier for you
A feature that allows changing the active flow without further development.
✨ NEW
Developers section
We’re introducing a section dedicated to developers that contains all the technical documentation needed for integration and troubleshooting.
From integration guides, architecture, database, and security information to API and SDK documentation.
⏫ UPDATED
Improved functionality – Request Edit
We made the “request edit” function easier to use. Now with just a few clicks, you can ask your clients to re-submit data from a specific stage of the flow.
