Example: How to validate IDs through the API?

Remember that you can validate documents through the LP api. See Document Validation service.

Below you can find some examples to validate through our API. You can also test with the examples above. Please note the structure of each ID type (length, dots, hyphen, lowercase/uppercase). To validate Chilean documents through the API, you can add or omit the dots, hyphens, and lowercase/uppercase.

Example: RUT

{
    "document": {
        "id" :"1111111111", 
        "type" :"RUT"
    },
    "country" : "CRI"
}
