Coviva ID
ℹ️ Overview
Coviva - is a document classifier that uses an algorithm to validate the visual appearance and the content of a document by comparing it to templates.
💻 Functionality
Coviva will recognize the document class and its state, our Template Engine will allow us to know which fields mean what, and from there we can use the authentication techniques. Additionally, Coviva prevents crude documents (an MRZ on a napkin) to be validated and rejects all naive fake USDLs where the text is correct but the appearance is not (napkin attacks).
Coviva receives an unprocessed and: image and the results of running OCR (Amazon textract) on that image and is able to validate ID images, no matter if they are images of the front or the back of a driving license.
🔨 How to
The functionality is yet to be exposed in the FE - this will come in the next iterations.
Textract OCR
ℹ️ Overview
Amazon Textract is a machine learning (ML) service that automatically extracts text, handwriting, and data from scanned documents. We will use this for the data in the documents in xProof.
💻 Functionality
Textract OCR capabilities will be required in the xProof activity definition so that its output can be used by other algorithms further downstream in the process. This will be a microservice run by Sky Mike. The service will perform OCR of the front side of the document and then from there input and pass the data to Covia
Minor Features/Bug fixes:
Webhooks
Updated the size limit for the webhook body from 255chars to 4096 chars
Include face data or document data in the webhook body
Face IT related issues
- Users do not See 'Change Country' Option
- If doc validation is enabled the country must be selected
- If doc validation is disabled the country defaults to the existing logic for the default
- If only one available country is configured, the selection doesn’t appear (same logic as before)
TrustX v1.0.8.2
Release Date: July 27th, 2023
TrustX backend work to support Skinning/UI Customization iteration #2
ℹ️ Overview
In the previous iteration, the UI customization focused on integrating the feature into the back end of TrustX. In this second iteration, we can now change themes and upload logos to the onboarding flow.
💻 Functionality
This release provides our customers the ability to change the colors - themes - of the onboarding flow. Customers will be able to customize to match their branding guidelines while having the capability to upload logos.
Customers can in turn pick which themes to apply to their process definitions that will be seen by the end user.
🔨 How to
Changing colours
A customer can change the themes by pressing on themes on the menu bar below.
To create a new theme, a customer can press the new theme in the top right corner.
A “Theme Name” will be required as shown by the “*”. An optional brief description can be provided
A drop-down option called “Page” will allow customers to view the different pages within the onboarding flow and how the themes applied will impact the different elements.
The below boxes represent different parts of the UI customization available. Meanings of each are as follows:
- “General” is the overarching theme
- “Buttons” reflect the buttons that appear
- “Text” is the text on the page
- “Input” will affect things such as the search boxes where an end-user can enter values
- “Panel” is for the background of some of the containers
- “Progress Bar” will be the color of the progress bar seen
By pressing on the color a customer can choose a new set by either using the palette or inputting the REF number.
Uploading a logo
A customer can upload logos by pressing on the next on the right-hand side of the screen
The following screen is where logos can be uploaded in the following formats: png, jpg, jpeg, webp, gif.
By pressing save & deploy the new theme becomes live and is now usable in the process definitions.
A summary of all elements can be seen by pressing on the theme in question on the menu page as seen below.

TrustX v1.0.8.1
Release Date: July 19th, 2023
Session data
ℹ️ Overview
Session Data is what allows us to capture and manage all data generated in the process instances.
💻 Functionality
A key new part of the Session Data is a new activity called “Simple Decider” which allows us to see if some of the intended outcomes of an onboarding/end-user flow have failed.
Some processes require that the result of a verification process is a “PASS”/”FAIL” decision. To support we have implemented a “Simple Decider” activity. This will review all the checks and ensure that the outcome of each check is either “N/A” or “PASS” - if they are then the overall decision (_decision) is a “PASS” decision.
🔨 How to
To implement the Simple Decider a customer must follow the usual flow to create a process definition, and use a determined or brand-new template.
To add the Simple Decider, a customer will pick it from the activities
And then drag it to where it is needed in the flow
Basic Right to Delete functionality
ℹ️ Overview
Implementing the required security/privacy by design elements to ensure that TrustX is BIPA compliant
💻 Functionality
In order to satisfy “delete” requests (GDPR & Right To Delete etc..) we need to be able to delete the process instance and its data and audit/record the request to delete. Currently, data in S3 is deleted based on the retention period.
We now have the ability to delete a process instance in the Front End. We also can automate the removal of process instances and data based on retention periods done through a configuration in the process definition.
🔨 How to
Deleting a Process Instance (PI) can be done in two ways:
- In the Process Instances menu page, a customer can delete by pressing the 🗑️ icon on the “Actions” column
A modal will appear as below to ensure the customer wants to delete the instance
If the customer presses no they will be returned to the previous screen. If they press yes the PI will be permanently deleted.
- The second method is to go into the PI itself and press the 🗑️ on the top right corner
A modal will appear as below to ensure the customer wants to delete the instance
If the customer presses no they will be returned to the previous screen. If they press yes the PI will be permanently deleted.

Webhooks Iteration #2
ℹ️ Overview
Customers will be able to create, deploy, and manages webhooks in the back office.
💻 Functionality
The new functionality in this iteration of webhooks is around adding some UI enhancements specific to the service, and secondly, the overarching capacity to manage webhooks in the back-office application. In more detail, this can be seen as selecting a webhook in the Process Designer (PD), managing the definitions, catering for when the process fails, storing results, and having up to seven days of invocations to review (note: no access to metrics as of yet - scheduled for the next iterations).
When adding the webhook to the flow, the user will drag the relevant icon into the flow and then pick the webhook name and version.
The user creating the webhooks will be able to see the following details (how-to below) on the details page:
Additional changes have been made to webhooks on the server which amongst others includes retries, storage (allowing for data reporting), and variables.

Webhook in the flow itself
Using the Service Task menu bar, a developer can pick which webhook to use and which version as seen below.
Audit Iteration #2
ℹ️ Overview
Customers will be able to capture and record security logs of all actions taken through an API.
💻 Functionality
Whereas the first iteration focused on the backend, the new functionality in this iteration of audit capabilities focuses on the back office and gives the customer the ability to access and create audits - amongst other tasks this entails some UI design and messaging creation. The audits will show all relevant data points created within the audit.
The Gateway used to route requests, was too susceptible to outages and could have brought down the entire region with it. As part of this release, the Gateway and by extension audit capabilities have been made more resilient.
🔨 How to
Audits are created in the relevant section of the Back Office (see below). The user's actions are tracked, logged, and made available in the tables.
To access the Audits, a customer can go to admin sessions in the menu bar.
Once in the relevant section, the table below shows each session ID. It is also possible to search for certain sessions by using the search bar on the top left.
More detail can be seen in each session by pressing on the 🔍 icon as seen below.
A window will then appear with some elements of the session.
To view the session itself, a back-office user can press on the 👁️ icon as below.
The table below shows some additional information on each session.
OIDC Sessions
ℹ️ Overview
This release will allow TrustX to adhere to the OIDC protocol and provide an identity token that aligns with the IAL2 standard.
💻 Functionality
In the Back Office, a customer with specific permissions will have access to the OIDC sessions. This will be displayed in a table with information such as the session ID, the subject, the date created and the status of the progress will be shown. Where details are not available in the table, they can be available in a modal.
The information for OIDC is returned through API calls.
🔨 How to
Note: accessing audits and OIDC follows the same flow.
To access the OIDC sessions, a customer can go to the admin sessions in the menu bar
The individual sessions can be seen in the below table
More details can be shown on the individual sessions by pressing the 🔍 icon on the right of the screen
TrustX backend work to support Skinning/UI Customization iteration #1
ℹ️ Overview
This is a first iteration towards allowing customers to present TrustX as their own product. This initial release focuses on the backend and puts in place the API which will enable the process manager to support UI themes.
💻 Functionality
This release provides an API to support custom UI themes per process in the orchestration layer.
In the coming iterations, a new menu item will be added to the left hand navigation bar which will enable the customer to customise all elements of the front end UI, and provide instant visibility of those UI changes with a high fidelity mock up presented in the orchestration layer for reference.
A created UI theme can then be applied to any process being created.
