Liveness Session Operations - Create Liveness With Verify Session

Create a new liveness session with verify. Client device submits VerifyImage during the /detectLivenessWithVerify/singleModal call.
A session is best for client device scenarios where developers want to authorize a client device to perform only a liveness detection without granting full access to their resource. Created sessions have a limited life span and only authorize clients to perform the desired action before access is expired.

Permissions includes...

    • Ability to call /detectLivenessWithVerify/singleModal for up to 3 retries.
    • A token lifetime of 10 minutes.

Note

    • Client access can be revoked by deleting the session using the Delete Liveness With Verify Session operation.
    • To retrieve a result, use the Get Liveness With Verify Session.
    • To audit the individual requests that a client has made to your resource, use the List Liveness With Verify Session Audit Entries.

Alternative Option: Client device submits VerifyImage during the /detectLivenessWithVerify/singleModal call.

Note

Extra measures should be taken to validate that the client is sending the expected VerifyImage.

POST {endpoint}/face/{apiVersion}/detectLivenessWithVerify/singleModal/sessions

URI Parameters

Name In Required Type Description
apiVersion
path True

string

API Version

endpoint
path True

string

uri

Supported Cognitive Services endpoints (protocol and hostname, for example: https://{resource-name}.cognitiveservices.azure.com).

Request Body

Name Required Type Description
livenessOperationMode True

LivenessOperationMode

Type of liveness mode the client should follow.

authTokenTimeToLiveInSeconds

integer

Seconds the session should last for. Range is 60 to 86400 seconds. Default value is 600.

deviceCorrelationId

string

Unique Guid per each end-user device. This is to provide rate limiting and anti-hammering. If 'deviceCorrelationIdSetInClient' is true in this request, this 'deviceCorrelationId' must be null.

deviceCorrelationIdSetInClient

boolean

Whether or not to allow client to set their own 'deviceCorrelationId' via the Vision SDK. Default is false, and 'deviceCorrelationId' must be set in this request body.

sendResultsToClient

boolean

Whether or not to allow a '200 - Success' response body to be sent to the client, which may be undesirable for security reasons. Default is false, clients will receive a '204 - NoContent' empty body response. Regardless of selection, calling Session GetResult will always contain a response body enabling business logic to be implemented.

Responses

Name Type Description
200 OK

CreateLivenessWithVerifySessionResult

A successful call create a session for a client device and provide an authorization token for use by the client application for a limited purpose and time.

LivenessOperationMode

The liveness operation mode to drive the client’s end-user experience.

Name Type Description
Passive

string

Utilizes a passive liveness technique that requires no additional actions from the user. Requires normal indoor lighting and high screen brightness for optimal performance. And thus, this mode has a narrow operational envelope and will not be suitable for scenarios that requires the end-user’s to be in bright lighting conditions. Note: this is the only supported mode for the Mobile (iOS and Android) solution.

PassiveActive

string

This mode utilizes a hybrid passive or active liveness technique that necessitates user cooperation. It is optimized to require active motion only under suboptimal lighting conditions. Unlike the passive mode, this mode has no lighting restrictions, and thus offering a broader operational envelope. This mode is preferable on Web based solutions due to the lack of automatic screen brightness control available on browsers which hinders the Passive mode’s operational envelope on Web based solutions.
