Submit Via API

You can submit your customer's KYC form data using the ARGOS ID check API and check the progress of KYC.

The ARGOS ID check API uses RESTful Endpoints and the default HTTP Method.

• The response data contains the status of the request and possible error codes.

• All response data is provided as JSON format.

• Use token authentication.

• All requests must be made in HTTPS. HTTP requests will fail.

1. API Key

To get started with API, you need a valid Key. Please obtain an API key at the dashboard.

2. Authentication

The API uses Token-based authentication. To use the API properly, you must use one provided by ARGOS.

2-1. Authenticate with HTTP Headers

You can send your API key with your query as an HTTP header. The API Key should be included in the method request header as 'x-api-key: {yourAPIKey}'.

curl -H "x-api-key: {yourAPIKey}" "https://rest-api.argosidentity.com/..."

2-2. Errors

Respond with a generic HTTP response code. 2xx means success, 4xx occurs when there is an error in the information transmitted to the Client. 5xx occurs when there is an error on the ARGOS server.
