App SDK
Tencent Cloud eKYC provides four methods for you to integrate with different products as needed.
A. Liveness detection and face comparison
Liveness detection and face comparison (App SDK): Use this method if you want to integrate eKYC's liveness detection and face comparison service with your mobile application (iOS/Android).
Liveness detection and face comparison (mobile HTML5): Use this method if you want to integrate eKYC's liveness detection and face comparison service with a mobile web (HTML5) application or interact with it through a modern mobile web browser.
Liveness detection and face comparison (pure API): Use this method if you want to integrate eKYC's liveness detection and face comparison service with your server-side application via API.
B. Identity verification
Identity Verification (App SDK): Use this method if you want to integrate eKYC's identity verification service with your mobile application (iOS/Android).
2. Set up your Tencent portal account
A. Sign up for a Tencent Cloud account
To use the eKYC service, sign up for a Tencent Cloud account as instructed in Signing Up and complete Enterprise Identity Verification. (If you have already signed up, skip this step.)
B. Activate the eKYC service
Log in to the eKYC console using your Tencent Cloud account and activate the service.
3. Get API credentials ready
Tencent Cloud uses SecretId and SecretKey to verify your identity and permissions. You can get the Tencent Cloud API credentials in the following steps:
A. Go to the TencentCloud API key management page and select CAM > API Key Management on the left sidebar to enter the API key management page.
B. Click Create Key to create a key and save the SecretId and SecretKey for subsequent API calls. You can skip this step if you already have a Tencent Cloud key.
4. Integrate the Tencent Cloud API
Tencent Cloud APIs can be called on the online debugging page of API 3.0 Explorer. To view the input parameters and responses of APIs, see [Quick API Run](https://www.tencentcloud.com/document/product/1061/37029! 4517d180223e7d6a5f03a5868ed28311). Before integrating Tencent Cloud API, you must integrate Tencent Cloud SDK to simplify the API integration process as well as to ensure that both API requests and responses meet expectations. For more information about integration, see Connecting to TencentCloud API.
Integration
eKYC provides different integration methods. Complete integration by following the instructions provided in the guide corresponding to your integration method.
After completing integration, you can verify it through testing. We strongly recommend you complete full testing before use in the production environment. As Tencent Cloud does not provide a test environment, you can complete your integration testing in a Tencent Cloud production environment.
