What the Police Verification API does

An asynchronous check. Submit the person's identity and address details with consent; Profiden handles the application through the state's citizen portal or police station, and the API reports status changes until the certificate is issued.

Consent is part of the contract

The person consents to police verification and to Profiden filing on their behalf.

Benefits of the Police Verification API

A police clearance or character certificate obtained through the local police station.

Official outcome

The certificate itself, not a database proxy.

Follow-through handled

Profiden chases the station so your team does not.

Use cases

How the Police Verification API works

Request and response details, environments and a ready-to-import collection are in the developer console at console.profiden.com.

01

Authenticate

Call with your organisation API key. Sandbox and production use the same contract.

02

Send the person's details and the documents you need. You receive a hosted link to share on any channel.

They sign in and choose what to share. Nothing moves without their approval.
