Overview

Use this method to retrieve the latest Device Intelligence check result of an applicant. The result includes the devices used during applicant verification, their risk labels, and the other applicants seen on these devices.

Required permissions

To use this method:

• Your app token must have the View check results permission.
• Device Intelligence must be enabled for your account. Otherwise, the checks array in the response is empty.

Use case

Use this method to evaluate the device risk of an applicant after the verification. For example, check whether the applicant used a rooted device, an emulator, or an anti-detect browser, or whether the same devices were used by other applicants, as an indicator of multi-accounting or fraud. You can use the result to make your own decision on the applicant or to pass the applicant to manual review.
