2️⃣ Enrollment

Enrollment is the process of registering a new user by connecting their facial biometrics to a Keyless account. During this process, a full and unobstructed view of the user's face is required.

val configuration = BiomEnrollConfig()

Keyless.enroll(
  configuration = configuration,
  onCompletion = { result ->
    when (result) {
      is Keyless.KeylessResult.Success -> Log.d("KeylessSDK ", "Enroll success - userId ${result.value.keylessId}")
      is Keyless.KeylessResult.Failure -> Log.d("KeylessSDK ", "Enroll failure - error code ${result.error.code}")
    }
  }
)

let configuration = BiomEnrollConfig()

Keyless.enroll(
  configuration: configuration,
  onCompletion: { result in
    switch result {
    case .success(let enrollmentSuccess):
        print("Enrollment finished successfully. UserID: \(enrollmentSuccess.keylessId)")
    case .failure(let error):
        print("Enrollment finished with error: \(error.message)
    }
  })

val configuration = EnrollmentConfiguration.builder.build()

Keyless.enroll(
  enrollmentConfiguration = configuration,
  onCompletion = { result ->
    when (result) {
      is Keyless.KeylessResult.Success -> Log.d("KeylessSDK ", "Enroll success - userId ${result.value.keylessId}")
      is Keyless.KeylessResult.Failure -> Log.d("KeylessSDK ", "Enroll failure - error code ${result.error.code}")
    }
  }
)

let configuration = Keyless.EnrollmentConfiguration.builder.build()

Keyless.enroll(
  enrollmentConfiguration: configuration,
  onCompletion: { result in
    switch result {
    case .success(let enrollmentSuccess):
        print("Enrollment finished successfully. UserID: \(enrollmentSuccess.keylessId)")
    case .failure(let error):
        print("Enrollment finished with error: \(error.message)
    }
  })

import 'package:keyless_flutter_sdk/keyless.dart';

final configuration = BiomEnrollConfig();

try {
  final result = await Keyless.instance.enroll(configuration);
  print("Enrollment finished successfully. UserID: ${result.keylessId}");
} catch (error) {
  print("Enrollment finished with error: $error");
}


import Keyless, { BiomEnrollConfig } from '@react-native-keyless/sdk';

const enrollUser = async () => {
  const enroll = new BiomEnrollConfig();

  const result = await Keyless.enroll(enroll);

  result.fold({
    onSuccess: (data) => {
      console.log(`Enrollment finished successfully. UserID: ${data.keylessId}`);
    },
    onFailure: (error) => {
      console.error('Enrollment finished with error:', error);
    },
  });
};

enrollUser();

Enrollment configuration

You can configure the enrollment process with optional parameters in your BiomEnrollConfig() instance or using the builder pattern methods from the EnrollmentConfiguration builder.

Enrollment success result

Depending on the configuration you created for the Enrollment, Keyless will populate the corresponding fields in the EnrollmentSuccess result reported below.

data class EnrollmentSuccess(  
    val keylessId: String,
    val enrollmentFrame: Bitmap?,
    val signedJwt: String?,
    val clientState: String?,
    val secret: KeylessSecret?,
    val secretIDs: Set<KeylessSecret.Identifier>?
) : KeylessSdkSuccess()

public struct EnrollmentSuccess {
    public let keylessId: String?
    public let enrollmentFrame: CGImage?
    public let signedJwt: String?
    public let clientState: String?
    public let secret: KeylessSecret?
    public let secretIDs: Set<KeylessSecret.Identifier>?
}


class EnrollmentSuccess {
  public readonly keylessId: string;
  public readonly customSecret: string;
  public readonly enrollmentFrame: string | null;
  public readonly signedJwt: string | null;
  public readonly clientState: string | null;
  }

Delaying the Keyless evaluation/decision

By default, our biometric decision making process initiates immediately on the camera being invoked and the camera preview showing. We believe this offers the maximum level of security in that an attacker is given no additional preparation time in front of the camera view, while at the same time we have looked to optimise the experience for genuine users i.e. delivering both approve and reject decisions in a way that feels natural and understandable to users. However, we recognise that our customers, and their users, have different contexts and preferences and therefore the cameraDelaySeconds configuration is available to specify the delay (in seconds) between when the camera preview appears, and when the liveness processing starts. In effect, no decision, whether \

Please note we advise careful consideration when implementing this feature for two reasons: i) While this allows users to frame themselves and have longer to understand what is happening, is also time for any attackers to also optimise their framing. ii) Implementing will ultimately mean that the "happy path" flow for all users is extended. If the delay is set for too long, some customers have noted that there is also the potential for some users to become frustrated and cancel/drop the flow. We're happy to engage further in what the best trade-offs may be for customers, given our wide-ranging experience of assisting customers in live implementations.

Secret management

During enrollment you can create, update, retrieve, and delete secrets, as well as list all stored secret IDs. Use savingSecret, retrievingSecret, deletingSecret, and shouldRetrieveSecretIDs configuration parameters. Retrieved secrets and secret IDs are available in the EnrollmentSuccess response. See Secret Management for full details.

JWT Signing info

You can specify a payload to be added to a JWT signed by Keyless with the jwtSigningInfo parameter, more in JWT signing.

Liveness Settings

Using livenessConfiguration you can configure the liveness security level during enrollment. The possible liveness configuration are under LivenessSettings.LivenessConfiguration :

DEVELOPMENT
LEVEL_1        //recommended configuration
LEVEL_2

You can also specify a livenessEnvironmentAware that is by default se to true to enhance liveness detection. This parameters helps to ensure the user is in a suitable setting for verification.

More details on liveness in the dedicated liveness settings section.

Operation info

The parameter operationInfo specifies a customizable unique operation identifier and associated payload stored on the Keyless backend if the enrollment succeeds. Use this to add an extra level of confirmation in your operations.

Details on how to query our backend for stored operations are available on Operations API.

Client State

Keyless users can be enrolled via IDV-Bridge, Identity Verification Bridge. As a result of IDV-Bridge enrollment you receive a client state useful to register users in your app without undergoing the full enrollment flow.

Use the clientState parameter to register users from a client state obtained through IDV-Bridge.

You can also use a client state to recover an account of an existing user who lost access to the account. Follow the guide on account recovery.

Enrollment Frame

Integrators can specify whether or not to retrieve an enrollment frame, acquired during the user’s selfie capture during the enrollment or account recovery flow. You can achieve this by setting shouldReturnEnrollmentFrame to true on the BiomEnrollmentConfig (defaults to false). If the enrollment succeeds, you can retrieve the frame from the returned EnrollmentSuccess, via enrollmentFrame.

Enrollment circuits

To speed up enrollment you can use the numberOfEnrollmentCircuits to upload less than the default of five circuits upon enrollment. The remainder (50 - numberOfEnrollmentCircuits) are uploaded asynchronously.

Presentation Style

Use the presentationStyle parameter in BiomEnrollConfig to control how the enrollment UX/UI is presented during the enrollment flow.

Full Screen (default): Shows the standard full-screen enrollment experience.
Overlay: Shows a streamlined and faster UX/UI, consistent with the authentication experience.
