Oz API is the most important component of the system. It makes sure all other components are connected with each other. Oz API:
provides the unified Rest API interface to run the Liveness and Biometry analyses,
processes authorization and user permissions management,
tracks and records requested orders and analyses to the database (for example, in 6.0, the database size for 100 000 orders with analyses is ~4 GB),
archives the inbound media files,
collects telemetry from connected mobile apps,
provides settings for specific device models,
generates reports with analyses' results.
In API 6.0, we introduced two new operation modes: Instant API and single request.
In the Instant API mode – also known as non-persistent – no data is stored at any point. You send a request, receive the result, and can be confident that nothing is saved. This mode is ideal for handling sensitive data and helps ensure GDPR compliance. Additionally, it reduces storage requirements on your side.
Single request mode allows you to send all media along with the analysis request in one call and receive the results in the same response. This removes the need for multiple API calls – one is sufficient. However, if needed, you can still use the multi-request mode.
