Layout Considerations

When integrating Vouched into your site design, consider that the Vouched component occupies 100% height of the parent container (it has CSS rule height: 100% applied). That means the parent container should be given a height.

Height should be given, for example, by setting height value (height: 100%) on the container or by using flex constraints (flex-grow: 1 in vertical flex-box).

On a desktop device, you will see different results depending on your crossDevice, crossDeviceQRCode, and crossDeviceSMS values. If they are all true as shown in the above code example, you can read more details on our Mobile Handoff page. If these fields are not present or set to false, you will see the following:

Javascript Callbacks

📘
A callback is a function that is to be executed after another function has finished executing — hence the name "call back". Functions can take other functions as arguments. Functions that do this are called higher-order functions. Any function that is passed as an argument is called a callback function.

In the context of Vouched, the callback functions can be used to send data back to your server or interact with your app as desired. Some examples are onSubmit (this function is called when a user submits a photo), onCamera (this function is called when camera initialization is complete), onInit (called during initialization of the Web App), and onDone (called when the verification is complete). Most of these provide access to the job object of type Job, which contains useful information such as job.id, job.token, job.result.success, and job.status.
