Handling verification results

When verification completes, your application receives a structured result. This page describes what the result contains and how to act on both success and failure paths.

Handling verification results

When verification completes, your application receives a structured result containing:

• Verification status: Whether the credential passed all checks.
• Disclosed claims: The specific data elements the holder consented to share.
• Verification checks performed: Signature validity, issuer trust, expiry, revocation status.
• Failure details: If verification failed, the specific reason.

Your application logic should handle both success and failure paths gracefully. For detailed guidance on interpreting and acting on results, see:
