# Build your workflow

You create workflows in the **workflow builder**, and once you publish them, the Platform pushes these workflows to the client devices running your code—using the [SDKs](/platform/sdk) that you have integrated.

Let's build a simple workflow that will ask the user to scan and verify their ID, and perform an additional biometric verification in case that the credibility of that ID is not high enough.

1. Go to **Workflows** and create a new workflow:

2. Drag the [Scan & Verify ID capability](/platform/capabilities/scan-verify-id) to the first available slot.

     <source src="/platform/img/drag-scan-verify-id.mp4" type="video/mp4" />
   </video>

3. Add an [if-else branch](/platform/capabilities/if-else-branch). 

   <video autoPlay loop muted playsInline style={{display: 'block', margin: '0 auto', maxWidth: '800px', width: '90%'}}>
     <source src="/platform/img/drag-if-else-branch.mp4" type="video/mp4" />
   </video>
   <br />

4. Now configure the conditions for the if-else branch.
   In the configuration, select **Scan & Verify ID**, then **Verification**, then **RecommendedOutcome**.
   Set it so that it's equal to **ManuallyReview** (in the predefined values).

5. Add a biometric check using the [Selfie & Face Match capability](/platform/capabilities/selfie-face-match) to the **if** branch.

   <video autoPlay loop muted playsInline style={{display: 'block', margin: '0 auto', maxWidth: '800px', width: '90%'}}>
     <source src="/platform/img/drag-selfie-match.mp4" type="video/mp4" />
   </video>
   <br />

6. Publish your workflow to accept new transactions. 
   Make note of the **Workflow ID** value—this is the value you will be using in your SDK for this specific workflow.

**You're done!**

Now, every time your users go through this specific workflow, they will scan their identity document.
If we can confidently determine that it's a real document presented by a real person, then your users are immediately verified.
Otherwise, if we cannot clearly determine that it's a real document, but also cannot say with confidence that it's a fake, your users are prompted to take a selfie.

We then match their selfie with the image on their identity document.
If it matches, they are verified.

In this tutorial you built a simple verification flow.
More complex workflows are also possible.
