  title: Shufti Pro Status Verification API
  description: Specification of the Shufti Pro identity-verification API. A single REST endpoint accepts a verification request containing one or more service objects - document, face, address, consent, background_checks, and kyb - to run KYC, KYB, and AML compliance across 240+ countries and territories. Companion endpoints retrieve verification status and proofs and delete verification data. Requests authorize via HTTP Basic Auth (Client ID as username, Secret Key as password) or a short-lived Bearer access token.
