## An Architectural View

To integrate your application with Yoti, your back-end must expose a GET endpoint that Yoti will use to forward tokens.
The endpoint can be configured in Yoti Hub when you create/update your application.

The image below shows how your application back-end and Yoti integrate in the context of a Login flow.
Yoti SDK carries out for you steps 6, 7 ,8 and the profile decryption in step 9.

![alt text](login_flow.png "Login flow")

Yoti also allows you to enable user details verification from your mobile app by means of the Android (TBA) and iOS (TBA) SDKs. In that scenario, your Yoti-enabled mobile app is playing both the role of the browser and the Yoti app. By the way, your back-end doesn't need to handle these cases in a significantly different way. You might just decide to handle the `User-Agent` header in order to provide different responses for web and mobile clients.

## Requirements

### Node version
Expand Down Expand Up @@ -106,258 +67,26 @@ Your package.json file will then be updated to include:
The YotiClient is the SDK entry point. To initialise it you need include the following snippet inside your endpoint initialisation section:

```javascript

const yoti = require('yoti');
const fs = require('fs');
const CLIENT_SDK_ID = 'your sdk id';
const PEM = fs.readFileSync(__dirname + '/keys/your-application-pem-file.pem');
const CLIENT_SDK_ID = 'YOUR_SDK_ID';
const PEM = fs.readFileSync('path/to/your-application-pem-file.pem');
const yotiClient = new yoti.Client(CLIENT_SDK_ID, PEM);

```

Where:

* `APPLICATION_ID` is the identifier generated by Yoti Hub when you create your app.

* `CLIENT_SDK_ID` is the SDK identifier generated by Yoti Hub in the Key tab when you create your app. Note this is not your Application Identifier which is needed by your client-side code.

* `path/to/your-application-pem-file.pem` is the path to the application pem file. It can be downloaded only once from the Keys tab in your Yoti Hub.

Please do not open the pem file as this might corrupt the key and you will need to create a new application.

[Example reference](examples/profile/index.js)

### Upgrading from SDK version 2.x.x

The way the Yoti SDK client is initialised was changed in version 3. Please make sure you update your code if you're upgrading the npm package.

```javascript

const yoti = require('yoti')
const yotiClient = new yoti.Client(CLIENT_SDK_ID, PEM)

```

## Profile Retrieval

When your application receives a token via the exposed endpoint (it will be assigned to a query string parameter named `token`), you can easily retrieve the user profile by adding the following to your endpoint handler:

```javascript

yotiClient.getActivityDetails(token).then((activityDetails) => {
//handle response here
})

```

Before you inspect the user profile, you might want to check whether the user validation was successful.
This is done as follows:

```javascript

yotiClient.getActivityDetails(token).then((activityDetails) => {
if(activityDetails.getOutcome() == 'SUCCESS') {
const profile = activityDetails.getProfile();
} else {
// handle unhappy path
}
})

```

[Example reference](examples/profile/index.js)


## Programmatic QR code creation

Dynamic Policy generation is a way of requesting non-static attribute lists for your application.

This is useful when you want or need different permutations of attributes from Yoti, without having to create a new scenario.

E.g:

* Request 1: full-name and date-of-birth
* Request 2: full-name and address

This service will query Yoti for a QR Code/link associated with the requested attribute list.

This QR Code/link should then be embedded into your page using the Yoti widget to begin a share with Yoti.

### Example

The following example demonstrates how a Dynamic Policy can be built using attribute methods such as `withFullName()`, and generic method `withWantedAttribute()`.

```javascript
const wantedEmailAttribute = new yoti.WantedAttributeBuilder()
.withName('email_address')
.withAcceptSelfAsserted()
.build();

const dynamicPolicy = new yoti.DynamicPolicyBuilder()
.withFullName()
.withWantedAttribute(wantedEmailAttribute)
.build();

const dynamicScenario = new yoti.DynamicScenarioBuilder()
.withCallbackEndpoint('/profile')
.withPolicy(dynamicPolicy)
.build();

yotiClient.createShareUrl(dynamicScenario)
.then((shareUrlResult) => {
const shareUrl = shareUrlResult.getShareUrl();
const refId = shareUrlResult.getRefId();
});

```

## Handling Users

When you retrieve the user profile, you receive a user ID generated by Yoti exclusively for your application.
This means that if the same individual logs into another app, Yoti will assign her/him a different ID.
You can use this ID to verify whether (for your application) the retrieved profile identifies a new or an existing user.
Here is an example of how this works:

```javascript

yotiClient.getActivityDetails(token).then((activityDetails) => {
if(activityDetails.getOutcome() == 'SUCCESS') {
const userProfile = activityDetails.getUserProfile(); // deprecated
const profile = activityDetails.getProfile();
const user = yourUserSearchFunction(activityDetails.getRememberMeId());
if(user) {
// handle login
} else {
// handle registration
const givenNames = profile.getGivenNames().getValue();
const familyName = profile.getFamilyName().getValue();
}
} else {
// handle unhappy path
}
})

```

Where `yourUserSearchFunction` is a piece of logic in your app that is supposed to find a user, given a _Remember Me ID_.
No matter if the user is a new or an existing one, Yoti will always provide her/his profile, so you don't necessarily need to store it.

The `profile` object provides a set of attributes corresponding to user attributes. Whether the attributes are present or not depends on the settings you have applied to your app on Yoti Hub.

You can retrieve the sources and verifiers for each attribute as follows:

```javascript
const givenNamesSources = givenNames.getSources(); // list/array of anchors
const givenNamesVerifiers = givenNames.getVerifiers(); // list/array of anchors
const givenNamesAnchors = givenNames.getAnchors(); // list/array of anchors
```

You can also retrieve further properties from these respective anchors in the following way:

```javascript
// Retrieving properties of the first anchor
const type = givenNamesSources[0].getType(); // string
const value = givenNamesSources[0].getValue(); // string
const subtype = givenNamesSources[0].getSubType(); // string
const timestamp = givenNamesSources[0].getSignedTimeStamp().getTimestamp(); // Date object
const originServerCerts = givenNamesSources[0].getOriginServerCerts(); // list of X509 certificates
```

## AML Integration
## Setup

Yoti provides an AML (Anti Money Laundering) check service to allow a deeper KYC process to prevent fraud. This is a chargeable service, so please contact [[email protected]](mailto:[email protected]) for more information.
For each service you will need:

Yoti will provide a boolean result on the following checks:
* Your Client SDK ID, generated by [Yoti Hub](https://hub.yoti.com) when you create (and then publish) your app.
* Your .pem file. This is your own unique private key which your browser generates from the [Yoti Hub](https://hub.yoti.com) when you create an application.

* PEP list - Verify against Politically Exposed Persons list
* Fraud list - Verify against US Social Security Administration Fraud (SSN Fraud) list
* Watch list - Verify against watch lists from the Office of Foreign Assets Control
## Products

To use this functionality you must ensure your application is assigned to your organisation in the Yoti Hub - please see [here](https://developers.yoti.com/yoti-app/web-integration#step-1-creating-an-organisation) for further information.

For the AML check you will need to provide the following:

* Data provided by Yoti (please ensure you have selected the Given name(s) and Family name attributes from the Data tab in the Yoti Hub)
* Given name(s)
* Family name
* Data that must be collected from the user:
* Country of residence (must be an ISO 3166 3-letter code)
* Social Security Number (US citizens only)
* Postcode/Zip code (US citizens only)

### Consent

Performing an AML check on a person *requires* their consent.
**You must ensure you have user consent *before* using this service.**

### Code example

Given a YotiClient initialised with your SDK ID and KeyPair (see [Configuration](#configuration)) performing an AML check is a straightforward case of providing basic profile data.

```javascript

// Initiate user profile data.

const amlAddress = new yoti.AmlAddress('GBR');
const amlProfile = new yoti.AmlProfile('Edward Richard George', 'Heath', amlAddress);

yotiClient.performAmlCheck(amlProfile).then((amlResult) => {
console.log(amlResult.isOnPepList);
console.log(amlResult.isOnFraudList);
console.log(amlResult.isOnWatchList);

// Or
console.log(amlResult);
}).catch((err) => {
console.error(err);
})

```

## Running the Examples

### Follow instructions in the README for each example:
* [Profile](examples/profile)
* [AML](examples/aml-check)

## API Coverage

In order to get the users information, the Node SDK will decrypt the token in the callback URL. Use the following code to do this:

```javascript

yotiClient.getActivityDetails(token).then((activityDetails) => {
const userProfile = activityDetails.getProfile();
// Use the table below to retrieve specific attributes from the profile object
})
```

* Activity Details
* [X] Remember Me ID `getRememberMeId()`
* [X] Parent Remember Me ID `getParentRememberMeId()`
* [X] Receipt ID `getReceiptId()`
* [X] Timestamp `getTimestamp()`
* [X] Base64 Selfie Uri `getBase64SelfieUri()`
* [X] Profile `getProfile()`
* [X] Full Name `getFullName().getValue()`
