Solution patterns
Use UnifyID across real products
Combine authentication, verified claims, document access, consent, and lifecycle events according to the decision your product actually needs.
Consumer and workforce experiences
Verified sign-in
Authenticate a known person with openid profile email identity_verified. Store the pairwise subject, not email, as the account link.
Trusted participants
Confirm identity and age while letting buyers, sellers, hosts, drivers, or freelancers share only approved information.
Employee onboarding
Establish the person behind a new employee record before issuing internal access or beginning regulated screening.
Financial and regulated products
| Use case | Recommended information | Operational event |
|---|---|---|
| Cross-border account | legal_name nationality identity_verified identity_documents document_validity | Stop processing after consent.revoked. |
| Age-restricted product | age_over_18 identity_verified | Reauthorize when assurance becomes stale. |
| Document-backed account | identity_documents document_type document_issuing_country document_verified | Revalidate only when policy or risk requires it. |
| High-value recovery | openid identity_verified liveness_verified face_match_verified | Create a separate high-assurance authorization transaction. |
Education and opportunity
Scholarship, examination, and admissions platforms can establish eligibility before collecting a long application. Prefer age_over_18 over an exact birth date, and request nationality only where the programme genuinely depends on it.

purpose=Assess eligibility for an international scholarshipTravel, mobility, and hospitality
Use document summaries to confirm that an approved travel document is verified and active. Retrieve a masked identifier unless the complete value is legally necessary and your Production application has received restricted-scope approval.
Healthcare and sensitive services
Use UnifyID to link a verified person to your internal patient or member record. Do not place medical information in OAuth purposes, webhook metadata, public profiles, or identity claims.
Developer and enterprise workspaces
Authenticate workspace members through UnifyID, then apply your own organization roles and least-privilege authorization. Identity proof answers who the person is; your application still decides what that person may do.
Reusable decision patterns
Do not confuse identity with authorization
Select an integration
Use Hosted UnifyID for the fastest secure implementation, the component for an embedded entry point, or the OAuth API for complete transaction control.
