Start verification

You should start a verification in order to receive the client_secret. In order to start a verification, the verification state has to be requested or failed. If the state is failed, you verification_failure_times must be less than max_verification_failure_times.

When you start a verification successfully, the state will become pending.

Start verification request

The start verification request may contain an empty body (or empty JSON object).

**Start verification request

import requests
 
response = requests.post("https://proxy.webshare.io/api/v2/idverification/start/", json={})
response.json()

curl https://proxy.webshare.io/api/v2/idverification/start/" \
  -X POST \
  -d "{}" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json"

The above command returns the updated verification object.
