2. Add plugin's actions/data calls to the workflows where needed. Actions: ### Create a Verification Session

A VerificationSession guides you through the process of collecting and verifying the identities of your users. Only create one VerificationSession for each verification in your system. A VerificationSession transitions through [multiple statuses](https://docs.stripe.com/identity/how-sessions-work) throughout its lifetime as it progresses through the verification flow. The VerificationSession contains the user’s verified data after verification checks are complete. **Settings:** * Metadata Allows to pass through additional information to Stripe in key/value pairs. * Type [Document](https://docs.stripe.com/identity/verification-checks?type=document) checks verify the authenticity for most government issued documents (national IDs, driver’s licenses and passports). [Id number](https://docs.stripe.com/identity/verification-checks?type=id-number) checks provide a way to verify a user’s name, date of birth, and national ID number. Stripe uses a combination of third-party data sources such as credit agencies or bureaus, utility or government-issued databases, and others to verify the provided ID number. * Allow driving license * Allow ID card * Allow passport * Require ID number Collect an ID number and perform an ID number check with the document’s extracted name and date of birth. * Require live capture Disable image uploads, identity document images have to be captured using the device’s camera. * Require matching selfie Capture a face image and perform a selfie check comparing a photo ID and a picture of your user’s face. * User email Email of the user being verified * User phone Phone number of user being verified * Terminate workflow in case of error If you don't want to terminate a workflow when any errors occur leave this checkbox off. In this case an error message will be available in the "error\_message" result field ### Update a Verification Session

When the session status is `requires_input`, you can use this method to update the verification check and options. For description of parameters, see [here](#create-a-verification-session). ### Retrieve a Verification Session

Retrieves the details of a VerificationSession that was previously created. When the session status is `requires_input`, you can use this method to retrieve a valid `url` to allow re-submission. ### Cancel a Verification Session

A VerificationSession object can be canceled when it is in `requires_input` [status](https://docs.stripe.com/identity/how-sessions-work). Once canceled, future submission attempts are disabled. This cannot be undone ### Redact a Verification Session

Redact a VerificationSession to remove all collected information from Stripe. This will redact the VerificationSession and all objects related to it, including VerificationReports, Events, request logs, etc. A VerificationSession object can be redacted when it is in `requires_input` or `verified` [status](https://docs.stripe.com/identity/how-sessions-work). Redacting a VerificationSession in `requires_action` state will automatically cancel it. The redaction process may take up to four days. Redacted objects cannot be updated or used for any purpose. Data calls: * Retrieve a Verification Session (by id) * Retrieve a Verification Session List * Retrieve a Verification Session Report (by id) A VerificationReport is the result of an attempt to collect and verify data from a user. The collection of verification checks performed is determined from the `type` and `options` parameters used. * Retrieve a Verification Session Report List --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
