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

  1. 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).
  2. Submit via API — Upload the file and start the batch job using your Batch Service API credentials.
  3. 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 CaseDescription
Customer CleanseValidate user identity, remove duplicates, and eliminate bad actors from your existing customer base.
MFA Security EvaluationScreen existing users for high-risk phone or email signals before rolling out MFA.
Fraud ReviewRetroactively run fraud intelligence checks against your existing records.
Data EnrichmentAugment records with additional attributes from a configured Checker — for example, carrier data, address validation, or risk scores.
B2B User CleanseVerify 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
