Face biometric events

Face biometric events notify you when face biometrics are created. When a face biometric event is triggered, IDaaS sends an HTTP POST request to your configured webhook URL with a JSON payload containing the event details.

Payload structure

Every face biometric event payload has this structure:

{
"id": "019cf825-3f2b-738d-8a72-73512b91d3ae",
"type": "face.biometric.created",
"accountId": "fba02d5c-2f79-4cfd-91f5-6bd454e97ab3",
"eventTime": "2026-03-16T19:35:16Z",
"data": {
// Event-specific data here
}
}

The data object contains event-specific fields. See the event examples later on this page for the full data object for each event type.
