HYPR Affirm

MVP Feature

Some functionality is limited. This article is subject to change as the feature develops and we make improvements.

HYPR Affirm offers Identity Verification (IdV) to HYPR users through the HYPR Mobile App for onboarding and for instances where a user has a new mobile device.

API Calls

The calls to perform CRUD operations and to test HYPR Affirm IdV flows can be found here in the HYPR Passwordless API collection.

HYPR Affirm Settings are accessible via the Control Center left navigation menu.

Clicking the HYPR Affirm menu link will display the following tabs, defaulting to the first:

  • Verification Flow: Define the steps required by the requester to begin the Identity Verification process

  • Approver Assignment: Determine who will evaluate collected IdV information

  • Audit Trail: See HYPR-wide Events and related information

  • Activity Log: A record of who has made requests to which approvers, and the results

How it Works​

First, you assign Applications which will use HYPR Affirm. Then you choose the verification flow to check the identity of employees by one or more of the following methods:

  • Phone Number and/or SMS confirmation

  • Location data based upon IP address

  • Live chat and/or video with an assigned Approver

  • Document uploads (passport, etc.)

Then assign one or more Approvers to verify the Requester. If you are using an Identity Provider, HYPR can ascertain the individual's immediate report-to (Manager) from there. If not, Approvers can be individually assigned to the flow.

HYPR Affirm Events are logged in the Audit Trail tab; actual approvals and denials are logged in the Activity Log tab.
