Batch Evaluation & Augmentation
Overview
Batch Evaluation & Augmentation lets you run identity verification and data enrichment checks against large lists of records — without requiring real-time user interaction. You submit a file of records via API, the ID Dataweb Platform processes each record through a configured Step, and results are appended to the output file when processing is complete.
This is distinct from real-time API or Gateway verification. Batch jobs are file-based and designed for high-volume, offline use cases such as customer database cleansing, fraud screening, MFA risk evaluation, and data enrichment.
How It Works
- Prepare your input file — CSV or Excel format, one record per row. Required fields depend on the Step being run (e.g. name, address, DOB, phone, email).
- Submit via API — Upload the file and start the batch job using your Batch Service API credentials.
- Retrieve results — Poll for job status; when complete, download the output file. Results are appended as additional columns to the original input — no data is removed or replaced.
All batch results appear in the standard ID Dataweb reporting (Transaction Report) alongside real-time transactions.
Use Cases
| Use Case | Description |
|---|---|
| Customer Cleanse | Validate user identity, remove duplicates, and eliminate bad actors from your existing customer base. |
| MFA Security Evaluation | Screen existing users for high-risk phone or email signals before rolling out MFA. |
| Fraud Review | Retroactively run fraud intelligence checks against your existing records. |
| Data Enrichment | Augment records with additional attributes from a configured Checker — for example, carrier data, address validation, or risk scores. |
| B2B User Cleanse | Verify email status and company affiliation for partner or employee user bases. |
Getting Started
Batch uses separate API credentials from real-time Gateway and API workflows. Contact your ID Dataweb team to:
- Provision Batch Service credentials
- Confirm which Steps and Checkers are available for batch use
- Get access to the status and download endpoints
- Review input format requirements for your specific use case
