Web SDK release notes

v1.6.0​

Updates​

  • The "Scan ID" capability now uses BlinkID v7.6.0 which, among other things, adds support for scanning the barcode page of US passports.

v1.5.0​

What's new​

  • We've added kiosk mode support. This is helpful in applications where a tablet device is mounted on a wall, and your users are expected to scan their documents using the front camera only.
  • You can now upload PDF files when using the manual input capability.
  • The SDK is now available on NPM.

Updates​

We've updated our BlinkID Verify and BlinkCard dependencies:

  • The "Scan & Verify ID" capability now uses BlinkID Verify 3.14.1.
  • The "Scan Payment Card" capability now uses BlinkCard 2.12.0.

To read more about the new features supported by these upgrades, see the release notes for BlinkID Verify and BlinkCard.
