Response

string

required

status

enum<string>

required

The status of the verification.

success - A new verification window was created.
retry - A new attempt was created for an existing verification window.
challenged - The verification is suspicious and is restricted to non-SMS and non-voice channels only. This mode must be enabled for your customer account by Prelude support.
blocked - The verification was blocked.
shadow_blocked - The verification triggered a block rule but the decision was not enforced; this is used to dry-run anti-fraud configuration. This mode must be enabled for your customer account by Prelude support.

Available options:

success,

retry,

challenged,

blocked,

shadow_blocked

Example:

"success"

method

enum<string>

required

The method used for verifying this phone number.

Available options:

email,

message,

silent,

voice

reason

enum<string>

The reason why the verification was blocked. Only present when status is "blocked" or "shadow_blocked".

expired_signature - The signature of the SDK signals is expired. They should be sent within the hour following their collection.
in_block_list - The phone number is part of the configured block list.
invalid_phone_line - The phone number is not a valid line number (e.g. landline).
invalid_phone_number - The phone number is not a valid phone number (e.g. unallocated range).
invalid_signature - The SDK signature did not verify, so the request cannot be attributed to the device it claims to come from.
repeated_attempts - The phone number exceeded the allowed number of verification attempts in a short period.
suspicious - The verification attempt was deemed suspicious by the anti-fraud system.

Available options:

expired_signature,

in_block_list,

invalid_phone_line,

invalid_phone_number,

invalid_signature,

repeated_attempts,

suspicious

Example:

"invalid_phone_number"

risk_factors

enum<string>[]

The risk factors that contributed to the verification being blocked. Only present when status is "blocked" or "shadow_blocked" and the anti-fraud system detected specific risk signals.

automation_signature - The request appears to come from an automated client rather than a person.
carrier_not_permitted - The destination carrier is one this account does not accept traffic for.
client_fingerprint_mismatch - The client does not appear to be the platform it identifies itself as.
custom_policy - A rule configured for your account matched this request.
device_emulator - The request appears to come from an emulator rather than a physical device.
device_not_permitted - The device platform is one your account blocks.
device_reuse - One device is driving verifications for an unusual number of phone numbers.
expired_signals - The SDK signals were collected too long before the request to still attest to it.
fraud_database - The phone number is flagged in one or more of the fraud databases Prelude consults.
invalid_signature - The SDK signature did not verify, so the request cannot be attributed to the device it claims to come from.
ip_concentration - The request shares its origin with an unusual volume of other verifications.
ip_reputation - The originating IP address is not trusted.
location_mismatch - The network location and the phone number's country are inconsistent.
missing_signals - The verification expected Prelude SDK signals and none arrived.
number_range_abuse - The phone number belongs to a range currently associated with abuse.
poor_conversion_history - Traffic resembling this request rarely completes a verification.
proxy_network - The request did not arrive over the subscriber's own access network.
repeated_attempts - The phone number exceeded the allowed number of verification attempts in a short period.
temporary_phone_number - The phone number belongs to a disposable or short-lived numbering service.

Available options:

automation_signature,

carrier_not_permitted,

client_fingerprint_mismatch,

custom_policy,

device_emulator,

device_not_permitted,

device_reuse,

expired_signals,

fraud_database,

invalid_signature,

ip_concentration,

ip_reputation,

location_mismatch,

missing_signals,

number_range_abuse,

poor_conversion_history,

proxy_network,

repeated_attempts,

temporary_phone_number

Example:

["proxy_network", "fraud_database"]

channels

enum<string>[]

The ordered sequence of channels to be used for verification

Available options:

rcs,

silent,

sms,

telegram,

viber,

voice,

whatsapp,

zalo

silent
