emver API
Issues a hosted consent link, tracks the person's authorisation and assembles the result.
Completed via
Authoritative source
You receive by webhook
The person downloads a password-protected e-KYC ZIP from the UIDAI portal and shares it with your app together with the share code. This API verifies the UIDAI signature, decrypts the payload and returns the demographic data and photo in a structured form.
It is the compliant route for full Aadhaar KYC when you are not an authorised KYC user agency — no OTP integration, no biometric device, and only a reference ID instead of the full number.
Consent is part of the contract
The person generates and shares the file themselves, which is the consent act. Keep the share code out of your logs.
Paperless offline KYC: the person shares a UIDAI-signed XML and you get verified demographics and photo.
Every payload is checked against the UIDAI signing certificate, so tampered files are rejected.
Only the reference ID and demographics come back.
Feed the photo to Face Match for a complete identity check.
