## External VideoID workflow overview

In **External VideoID** mode, your platform collects identification evidence and the video; you create a Video ID request and then upload **evidences** (acceptance, videoid_data: images, ocr_data, security_checks, similarity_level) and the **video** file via the API. When all evidence and the video are uploaded, the request status becomes **VIDEOREVIEW**. The RAO then validates or refuses the request; if validated, the RAO approves (generate declaration, contract, approve). Status becomes **ENROLLREADY** and the user receives the pre-auth link.

## Steps

1. **Get first unused scratchcard** — Same as [classic workflow](/products/namirialpkiaas/registration-authority/enterprise-documentation/products-and-modules/workflows/classic-workflow).
2. **Create request** — [Create Request](/products/namirialpkiaas/registration-authority/openapi) with `videoid_mode: 1`, profile, `scratchcard`, `registration_authority`, and user data. Request is in **VIDEOPENDING**.
3. **Upload data evidence** — [Upload data evidence](/products/namirialpkiaas/registration-authority/openapi) (`PUT /api/v1/videoid/{video_pk}`) with JSON body: `acceptance` (terms, privacy policy, IP, URL, user-agent, date) and `videoid_data` (images as base64, ocr_data, security_checks, similarity_level).
4. **Upload video** — [Upload video](/products/namirialpkiaas/registration-authority/openapi) (`POST /v1/upload/video/{video_identifier}/`) with multipart/form-data and `video=@file.mp4`. When all required evidence and video are uploaded, status becomes **VIDEOREVIEW**.
5. **Validate or refuse** — RAO uses [Validate Video ID request](/products/namirialpkiaas/registration-authority/openapi) or [Refuse request](/products/namirialpkiaas/registration-authority/openapi) to validate or refuse the Video ID.
6. **Approve request** — Same as classic/eIDAS: generate RAO declaration, generate contract, [Approve request](/products/namirialpkiaas/registration-authority/openapi). Status becomes **ENROLLREADY**.


## Data objects

- **acceptance** — Client acceptance parameters (customizable).
- **videoid_data.images** — document_front, document_rear, document_photo, document_owner (base64).
- **videoid_data.ocr_data** — given_name, surname_1, surname_2, mobile_phone_number, email, serial_number, id_document_type, id_document_country.
- **videoid_data.security_checks** — otp_validation, documents_match, data_integrity, document_notcopy, document_notexpired, document_notunderage, liveliness.
- **videoid_data.similarity_level** — e.g. "high" or 0–100.
