Overview
The Onfido Smart Capture SDKs provide a set of screens and functionalities that enable applications to implement user identity verification flows. Each SDK contains:
- Carefully designed UX to guide your customers through the different photo or video capture processes
- Modular design to help you seamlessly integrate the different photo or video capture processes into your application's flow
- Advanced image quality detection technology to ensure the quality of the captured images meets the requirement of the Onfido identity verification process, guaranteeing the best success rate
- Direct image upload to the Onfido service, to simplify integration
- A suite of advanced fraud detection signals to protect against malicious users
All Onfido Smart Capture SDKs are orchestrated using Onfido Studio workflows, with only minor customization differences between the available platforms.
Environments and testing with the SDK
Two environments exist to support the Onfido SDK integrations:
- 'sandbox' - to be used for testing with sample documents
- 'live' - to be used only with real documents and in production apps
The environment being used is determined by the API token that is used to generate the necessary SDK token.
Going Live
Once you are satisfied with your integration and are ready to go live, please contact Customer Support to obtain a live API token. You will have to replace the sandbox token in your code with the live token.
Check that you have entered correct billing details inside your Onfido Dashboard, before going live.
Adding the SDK dependency
The React Native SDK supports:
- React Native 0.72
- iOS 12+
- Xcode 15+
- Android API level 21+
- iPads and tablets
Adding the Onfido React Native SDK to your project
This SDK supports React Native versions 0.72
If you are starting from scratch, you can follow the React Native CLI Quickstart. Once you have installed the React Native tools, you can run:
1$ npx react-native init YourProjectName
You cannot use this SDK with Expo. If your project already uses Expo, you will need to follow the eject process, documented here.
Note: You will need to download and install Android Studio, configured as specified in the react-native guide for Android to run on an Android emulator.
Adding SDK dependency through npm
Navigate to the root directory of your React Native project. The rest of this section will assume you are in the root directory. Run the following command:
1$ npm install @onfido/react-native-sdk --save
Update your Android build.gradle files
Update your build.grade
files to reference the Android SDK, and enable multi-dex. If you build your project using the react-native init
, with a build.gradle
in the android/
and android/app/
directories, you can run this script to do it:
1$ npm --prefix node_modules/@onfido/react-native-sdk/ run updateBuildGradle
If you want to manually update your build files, you can follow the steps the script takes:
Add the maven link android/build.gradle
:
1allprojects {2 repositories {3 mavenCentral()4 }5}
Enable multi-dex in android/app/build.gradle
:
1android {2 defaultConfig {3 multiDexEnabled true4 }5}
Custom Android Application Class
Note: You can skip this step if you don't have any custom application class.
After the release of version 9.0.0, the Onfido React Native SDK runs in a separate process (for Android only). This means that when the Onfido SDK starts, a new application instance will be created. To prevent re-executing the initializations you have in the Android application class, you can use the isOnfidoProcess
extension function and return from onCreate
as shown below.
This will prevent initialization-related crashes such as: FirebaseApp is not initialized in this process
Kotlin
1class YourCustomApplication : MultiDexApplication() {2 override fun onCreate() {3 super.onCreate()4 if (isOnfidoProcess()) {5 return6 }78 // Your custom initialization calls ...9 }1011 private fun isOnfidoProcess(): Boolean {12 val pid = Process.myPid()13 val manager = this.getSystemService(ACTIVITY_SERVICE) as ActivityManager1415 return manager.runningAppProcesses.any {16 it.pid == pid && it.processName.endsWith(":onfido_process")17 }18 }19}
Update your iOS configuration files
Change ios/Podfile
to use version 12:
1platform :ios, '12.0'
Add descriptions for camera and microphone permissions to ios/YourProjectName/Info.plist
:
1<plist version="1.0">2<dict>3 <!-- Add these four elements: -->4 <key>NSCameraUsageDescription</key>5 <string>Required for document and facial capture</string>6 <key>NSMicrophoneUsageDescription</key>7 <string>Required for video capture</string>8 <!-- ... -->9</dict>10</plist>
Open Xcode and create an empty Swift file in your project root. For example, if your project is called YourProjectName, you can open it from the command line:
1open ios/YourProjectName.xcodeproj
Once Xcode is open, add an empty Swift file: File > New File > Swift > Next > "SwiftVersion" > Create > Don't create Header. This will update your iOS configuration with a Swift version. All changes are automatically saved, so you can close Xcode.
Install the pods:
1cd ios2pod install3cd ..
NFC capture using Onfido Studio
Recent passports, national identity cards and residence permits contain a chip that can be accessed using Near Field Communication (NFC). The Onfido SDKs provide a set of screens and functionalities to extract this information, verify its authenticity and provide the resulting verification as part of a Document report.
From version 10.0.0 onwards, NFC is enabled by default in the Onfido React Native SDK for Android and iOS and offered to customers when both the document and the device support NFC.
For more information on how to configure NFC and the list of supported documents, please refer to the NFC for Document Report guide.
Enabling NFC extraction for iOS
For iOS, the NFC feature requires Near Field Communication Tag Reading
capability in your app target. If you haven't added it before, please follow the steps in Apple's documentation.
You're required to have the following key in your application's Info.plist
file:
1<key>NFCReaderUsageDescription</key>2<string>Required to read ePassports</string>
You have to include the entries below in your app target's Info.plist
file to be able to read NFC tags properly:
1<key>com.apple.developer.nfc.readersession.felica.systemcodes</key>2<array>3 <string>12FC</string>4</array>5<key>com.apple.developer.nfc.readersession.iso7816.select-identifiers</key>6<array>7 <string>A0000002471001</string>8 <string>A0000002472001</string>9 <string>00000000000000</string>10 <string>D2760000850101</string>11</array>
Disabling NFC and excluding dependencies
NFC is enabled by default. To disable NFC, include the nfcOption
parameter with OnfidoNFCOptions.DISABLED
while configuring the Onfido.start
function:
1config = {2 sdkToken: "<YOUR_SDK_TOKEN>",3 workflowRunId: "<YOUR_WORKFLOW_RUN_ID>",4 nfcOption: OnfidoNFCOptions.DISABLED5}
For Android, a range of NFC library dependencies are included in the build automatically. In addition to configuring the nfcOption
parameter, you must remove any libraries from the build process.
Exclude dependencies required for NFC from your build:
1dependencies {2 implementation 'com.onfido.sdk.capture:onfido-capture-sdk:x.y.z' {3 exclude group: 'net.sf.scuba', module: 'scuba-sc-android'4 exclude group: 'org.jmrtd', module: 'jmrtd'5 exclude group: 'com.madgag.spongycastle', module: 'prov'6 }7}
If your application already uses the same libraries that the Onfido SDK needs for the NFC feature, you may encounter some dependency conflicts that will impact and could interfere with the NFC capture in our SDK. In such cases, we propose using the dependency resolution strategy below, by adding the following lines to your build.gradle
file:
1implementation ("com.onfido.sdk:onfido-<variant>:19.1.0"){2 exclude group: "org.bouncycastle"3 }4 implementation ("the other library that conflicts with Onfido on BouncyCastle") {5 exclude group: "org.bouncycastle"6 }78 implementation "org.bouncycastle:bcprov-jdk15to18:1.69"9 implementation "org.bouncycastle:bcutil-jdk15to18:1.69"
NFC Options
To configure NFC, include the nfcOption
parameter with the three options below while configuring the Onfido.start
function:
- DISABLED: NFC reading will not be asked of end-users
- OPTIONAL (Default): NFC reading will be attempted, if possible
- REQUIRED: NFC reading will be enforced, preventing end-users from completing the flow without a successful reading
Initializing the SDK
⚠️ The following SDK initialization documentation applies to identity verification workflows orchestrated using Onfido Studio. For integrations where the verification steps are manually defined and configured, please refer to the Advanced flow customization section below.
The Reach Native SDK has multiple initialization and customization options that provide flexibility to your integration, while remaining easy to integrate.
Defining a workflow
Onfido Studio is the platform used to create highly reusable identity verification workflows for use with the Onfido SDKs. For an introduction to working with workflows, please refer to our Getting Started guide, or the Onfido Studio product guide.
SDK sessions are orchestrated by a session-specific workflow_run_id
, itself derived from a workflow_id
, the unique identifier of a given workflow.
For details on how to generate a workflow_run_id
, please refer to the POST /workflow_runs/
endpoint definition in the Onfido API reference.
Note that in the context of the SDK, the
workflow_run_id
property is referred to asworkflowRunId
.
Applicant ID reuse
When defining workflows and creating identity verifications, we highly recommend saving the applicant_id
against a specific user for potential reuse. This helps to keep track of users should you wish to run multiple identity verifications on the same individual, or in scenarios where a user returns to and resumes a verification flow.
SDK authentication
The SDK is authenticated using SDK tokens. Onfido Studio generates and exposes SDK tokens in the workflow run payload returned by the API when a workflow run is created.
SDK tokens for Studio can only be used together with the specific workflow run they are generated for, and remain valid for a period of five weeks.
Note: You must never use API tokens in the frontend of your application as malicious users could discover them in your source code. You should only use them on your server.
Build a configuration object
To use the SDK, you need to obtain an instance of the client object, using your generated SDK token and workflow run ID.
1config = {2 sdkToken: "<YOUR_SDK_TOKEN>",3 workflowRunId: "<YOUR_WORKFLOW_RUN_ID>"4}
Start the flow
You can then launch the app with a call to Onfido.start
.
1Onfido.start(config);2// listen for the result
An expanded example of a configuration can be found below:
1import React, {Component} from 'react';2import {Button, View} from 'react-native';3import {4 Onfido,5 OnfidoCaptureType,6 OnfidoCountryCode,7 OnfidoDocumentType,8} from '@onfido/react-native-sdk';910export default class App extends Component {11 startSDK() {12 Onfido.start({13 sdkToken: "<YOUR_SDK_TOKEN>",14 workflowRunId: "<YOUR_WORKFLOW_RUN_ID>",15 })16 .then(res => console.warn('OnfidoSDK: Success:', JSON.stringify(res)))17 .catch(err => console.warn('OnfidoSDK: Error:', err.code, err.message));18 }1920 render() {21 return (22 <View style={{marginTop: 100}}>23 <Button title="Start Onfido SDK" onPress={() => this.startSDK()} />24 </View>25 );26 }27}
Styling customization
For both iOS and Android, the React Native SDK supports the customization of colors, fonts and strings used in the SDK flow.
Appearance and Colors
Android
The customization of colors and other appearance attributes for Android is implemented according to the same methodology as the native Android SDK. You can find detailed documentation here.
For a complete list and visualizations of the customizable attributes, refer to our SDK customization guide.
Customizing Dimensions
To customize supported dimensions, you can add an Android resource file called dimens.xml
in the following directory of your project: android/app/src/main/res/values
.
For example:
1<resources>2 <dimen name="onfidoButtonCornerRadius">8dp</dimen>3</resources>
The following dimension is currently supported:
onfidoButtonCornerRadius
: The corner radius of all buttons in the SDK, provided in thedp
unit
iOS
For iOS, you can customize colors and other appearance attributes by adding a colors.json
file to your Xcode project as a bundle resource. The file should contain a single json object with the desired keys and values. For example:
1{2 "onfidoPrimaryColor": "#FF0000",3 "backgroundColor": {4 "light": "#FCFCFD",5 "dark": "#000000"6 },7 "onfidoPrimaryButtonTextColor": "#FFFFFF",8 "onfidoPrimaryButtonColorPressed": "#FFA500",9 "interfaceStyle": <"unspecified" | "light" | "dark">,10 "secondaryTitleColor": "#FF0000",11 "secondaryBackgroundPressedColor": "#FF0000",12 "buttonCornerRadius": 20,13 "fontFamilyTitle": "FONT_NAME_FOR_TITLES",14 "fontFamilyBody": "FONT_NAME_FOR_CONTENT",15}
For a complete list and visualizations of the customizable attributes, refer to our SDK customization guide.
Dark theme
The React Native SDK supports the dark theme. By default, the user's active device theme will be automatically applied to the Onfido SDK. However, you can opt out from dynamic theme switching at run time and instead set a theme statically at the build time as shown below. In this case, the flow will always be displayed in the selected theme regardless of the user's device theme.
Android
Dark theme customization for Android is implemented according to the same methodology as the native Android SDK. You can find detailed documentation here.
iOS
Dark theme customization for iOS is implemented according to the same methodology as the native Android SDK. You can find detailed documentation here.
Co-branding
The Onfido React Native SDK allows for a number of co-branding options that affect the display of the Onfido logo at the bottom of the Onfido screens.
Logo co-branding
-
logoCobrand {Boolean}
- optionalYou may specify a set of images to be defined in the
logoCobrand
property. You must provide the path to an image for use in 'dark' mode and a separate image for 'light' mode.
Android
The two logo images must be placed in the drawables
resource folder of your application (/res/drawables
), named as follows:
cobrand_logo_light.xml
(accessible in code byR.drawable.cobrand_logo_light
)cobrand_logo_dark.xml
(accessible in code byR.drawable.cobrand_logo_dark
)
iOS
The two logo images must be placed in the assets
folder of your application.
The logoCobrand
property itself takes a boolean as a value, which by default is set to false
.
Hide Onfido logo
-
hideLogo {Boolean}
- optionalIn addition to
logoCobrand
, you can also choose to hide the Onfido logo from the footer watermark. ThehideLogo
property takes a boolean as a value, which by default is set tofalse
.
To apply the logoCobrand
and hideLogo
options for both Android and iOS, define their values in the Onfido.start
function:
1Onfido.start({2 sdkToken: "<TOKEN_HERE>",3 workflowRunId: "<YOUR_WORKFLOW_RUN_ID>",4 hideLogo: "<TRUE/FALSE>",5 logoCobrand: "<TRUE/FALSE>"6 })
Please note: Logo co-branding options must be enabled by Onfido. Please contact your Solutions Engineer or Customer Success Manager to activate the feature.
Language localization
The React Native SDK supports and maintains translations for over 40 languages, available for use with both Android and iOS.
The SDK will detect and use the end user's device language setting. If the device's language is not supported by Onfido, the SDK will default to English (en_US
).
For a complete list of the languages Onfido supports, refer to our SDK customization guide.
Custom languages for Android
You can also provide a custom translation for a specific language or locale that Onfido does not currently support, by having an additional XML strings file inside your resources folder for the desired locale. See our Android localization documentation for more details.
Custom languages for iOS
For iOS, you can also provide a custom translation for a specific language or locale that Onfido does not currently support. To configure this on the React Native SDK:
- Add this statement to your configuration object.
1localisation: {2 ios_strings_file_name: '<Your .strings file name in iOS app bundle>',3},
- Navigate to the iOS folder
cd ios
, and open your Xcode workspace. - Follow the instructions for iOS Localization to add a new custom language or override existing translations.
- You can find the keys that need to be translated in the iOS SDK repo.

Media Callbacks
Introduction
Onfido provides the possibility to integrate with our Smart Capture SDK, without the requirement of using this data only through the Onfido API. Media callbacks enable you to control the end user data collected by the SDK after the end user has submitted their captured media. As a result, you can leverage Onfido’s advanced on-device technology, including image quality validations, while still being able to handle end users’ data directly. This unlocks additional use cases, including compliance requirements and multi-vendor configurations, that require this additional flexibility.
This feature must be enabled for your account. Please contact your Onfido Solution Engineer or Customer Success Manager.
Implementation
To use this feature, use Onfido.addCustomMediaCallback
and provide the callback.
1Onfido.addCustomMediaCallback(2 mediaResult => {3 if (mediaResult.captureType === 'DOCUMENT') {4 // Callback code here5 } else if (mediaResult.captureType === 'FACE') {6 // Callback code here7 } else if (mediaResult.captureType === 'VIDEO') {8 // Callback code here9 }10 }11);
User data
The callbacks return an object including the information that the SDK normally sends directly to Onfido. The callbacks are invoked when the end user confirms submission of their image through the SDK’s user interface.
Note: Currently, end user data will still automatically be sent to the Onfido backend, but you are not required to use Onfido to process this data.
The callback returns 3 possible objects. Please note that captureType
refers to the type of the media capture in each case.
These can be DOCUMENT
, FACE
or VIDEO
.
- For documents (
captureType
isDOCUMENT
), the callback returns:
1{2 captureType: String3 side: String4 type: String5 issuingCountry: String?6 fileData: String7 fileName: String8 fileType: String9}
Notes:
issuingCountry
is optional based on end-user selection, and can benull
.fileData
is a String representation of the byte array data corresponding to the captured photo of the document.- If a document was scanned using NFC, the callback will return the passport photo in
fileData
but no additional data.
- For live photos (
captureType
isFACE
), the callback returns:
1{2 captureType: String3 fileData: String4 fileName: String5 fileType: String6}
Note: fileData
is a String representation of the byte array data corresponding to the captured live photo.
- For live videos (
captureType
isVIDEO
), the callback returns:
1{2 captureType: String3 fileData: String4 fileName: String5 fileType: String6}
Note: fileData
is a String representation of the byte array data corresponding to the captured video.
Please note that, for your convenience, Onfido provides the byteArrayStringToBase64
helper function to convert the fileData
from String to a Base64 format. Here is an example of how to use it:
1let byteArrayString = mediaResult.fileData;2let base64FileData = Onfido.byteArrayStringToBase64(byteArrayString);
Generating verification reports
While the SDK is responsible for capturing and uploading the user's media and data, identity verification reports themselves are generated based on workflows created using Onfido Studio.
For a step-by-step walkthrough of creating an identity verification using Onfido Studio and our SDKs, please refer to our Quick Start Guide.
If your application initializes the Onfido React Native SDK using the options defined in the Advanced customization section of this document, you may create checks and retrieve report results manually using the Onfido API. You may also configure webhooks to be notified asynchronously when the report results have been generated.
Advanced flow customization
This section on 'Advanced customization' refers to the process of initializing the Onfido React Native SDK without the use of Onfido Studio. This process requires a manual definition of the verification steps and their configuration.
The flow step parameters described below are mutually exclusive with workflowRunId
, requiring an alternative method of instantiating the client and starting the flow.
Note that this initialization process is not recommended as the majority of new features are exclusively released for Studio workflows.
Manual SDK authentication
The SDK is authenticated using SDK tokens. As each SDK token must be specific to a given applicant and session, and a new token must be generated each time you initialize the Onfido React Native SDK.
Parameter | Notes |
---|---|
applicant_id | required Specifies the applicant for the SDK instance. |
application_id | required The application ID (for iOS "application bundle ID") that was set up during development. For iOS, this is usually in the form com.your-company.app-name , or com.example.yourapp for Android. Make sure to use a valid application_id or you'll receive a 401 error. |
- For iOS, the
application_id
is usually in the form ofcom.your-company.app-name
.- To get this value manually, open Xcode
ios/YourProjectName
, click on the project root, click the General tab, under Targets click your project name, and check the Bundle Identifier field. - To get this value programmatically in native iOS code, refer to this Stack Overflow Page.
- To get this value manually, open Xcode
- For Android, the
application_id
is usually in the form ofcom.example.yourapp
.- To get this file manually, you can find it in your app's
build.config
. For example, inandroid/app/build.gradle
, it is the value ofapplicationId
. - To get this value programmatically in native Java code, refer to this Stack Overflow Page.
- To get this file manually, you can find it in your app's
It's important to note that manually generated SDK tokens in React Native expire after 90 minutes and cannot be renewed. SDK tokens generated in Onfido Studio when creating workflow runs are not affected by this limit.
For details on how to manually generate SDK tokens, please refer to the POST /sdk_token/
endpoint definition in the Onfido API reference.
Note: You must never use API tokens in the frontend of your application as malicious users could discover them in your source code. You should only use them on your server.
Manually building the configuration object
You can launch the app with a call to Onfido.start
, manually defining the verification steps and configurations required for your flow:
1import React, {Component} from 'react';2import {Button, View} from 'react-native';3import {4 Onfido,5 OnfidoCaptureType,6 OnfidoCountryCode,7 OnfidoDocumentType,8} from '@onfido/react-native-sdk';910export default class App extends Component {11 startSDK() {12 Onfido.start({13 sdkToken: "<YOUR_SDK_TOKEN>",14 flowSteps: {15 welcome: true,16 captureFace: {17 type: OnfidoCaptureType.VIDEO,18 },19 captureDocument: {20 docType: OnfidoDocumentType.DRIVING_LICENCE,21 countryCode: OnfidoCountryCode.GBR22 },23 },24 })25 .then(res => console.warn('OnfidoSDK: Success:', JSON.stringify(res)))26 .catch(err => console.warn('OnfidoSDK: Error:', err.code, err.message));27 }2829 render() {30 return (31 <View style={{marginTop: 100}}>32 <Button title="Start Onfido SDK" onPress={() => this.startSDK()} />33 </View>34 );35 }36}
