Summary

Didit’s guide explains how to secure server-to-server API integrations through OAuth 2.0’s Client Credentials Flow, in which an application exchanges its client ID and API key for a short-lived bearer token without requiring user involvement. It describes Didit’s programmatic registration process, which uses email and OTP verification to create an organization and application and provide credentials, as well as an API option for retrieving existing application credentials. A Python example demonstrates requesting tokens from Didit’s OAuth endpoint while recommending that sensitive credentials be stored in environment variables. The guide also emphasizes token renewal before expiration and compliance with API rate limits, including use of rate-limit response headers, Retry-After guidance, and exponential backoff after 429 errors. Didit presents its developer-focused identity platform as offering modular services such as ID verification, liveness detection, biometric matching, AML screening, proof of address, age estimation, and contact verification through APIs and a no-code business console.
