The self-categorization-assessment is a form based KYC process composed of questions used to determine the user’s investor profile, including risk level and investment preferences.
This KYC process status will be exempt
for all users residing outside of GB
.
When calling GET /core/kyc?detailed=selfCategorizationStatement
, you will get a hint
property which includes a JSON form schema and UI schema.
The hint
property will also be available in responses of this endpoint, in case there are still questions to be answered.
Please read more about forms in the Introduction page.
Authorizations
OAuth 2.0 authentication.
Headers
The natural language and locale that the client prefers.
Body
Input of the KYC process.
The id of the form.
The answers
property follows the JSON Forms specification for data objects and has two key behaviors:
- Partial or Complete Answers Submission:
- It accepts the answers to the questions of the current step (identified by UI Schema 'Category'). This allows the submission of the responses incrementally, either answering all questions in the current step or just a subset of them.
- Form Reset by Answering Previous Questions:
- It also allows for a form reset by accepting one or more answers from a previous step (identified by UI Schema 'Category'). This enables the modification of previous answers, ensuring that the form is flexible and can handle dynamic user interactions.
The KYC process starts its evaluation once the last question has been answered, ensuring that all necessary information has been provided before proceeding with the assessment.
Response
Status of the KYC process.
ok
, failed
, running
, pending
, exempt
Output of the KYC process.
The output result of the KYC process.
approved
, none
, rejected
The date and time when the KYC process expires.
Hints for the KYC process.
The type of the hint.
form
The id of the form.
The definition of the structure and validation rules for this KYC process form.
It follows the JSON Schema specification with the power of JSON Forms.
The schema is iterative, meaning that new questions and properties can be added dynamically as the KYC process evolves. This allows for a flexible and adaptive form structure that can accommodate changes and new requirements over time.
The uiSchema
property defines the general layout and presentation of the form by means of different UI schema elements.
It follows the JSON Forms specification and is used to customize the appearance and behavior of the form fields.
The uiSchema
includes the following elements:
Layouts
: Used to structure the form layout. It includes properties liketype
to define the layout type (e.g.,Categorization
) andelements
to define the child elements.Controls
: Used to define the form controls. It includes properties likescope
to point to the corresponding schema property andlabel
to define the control's label.Rules
: Used to define conditional visibility rules for form controls. It includes properties likeeffect
to define the rule effect (e.g.,SHOW
) andcondition
to define the rule condition.
The uiSchema
is iterative, meaning that new controls and layout elements can be added dynamically as the KYC process evolves. This allows for a flexible and dynamic form layout, enhancing the user experience by providing a structured and intuitive form design that can adapt to new requirements and changes over time.
