overallLevel low, medium, high Overall risk level. See below for calculation logic.

overallLevel calculation

overallLevel is calculated based on the risk associated with the submitted full name and Cédula de Identidad:

  • low when fullNameMatch and idNumMatch are both exact.
  • high when fullNameMatch or idNumMatch is nomatch.
  • medium for all other combinations.

Contact your Incode representative to customize the overallLevel calculation for your use case.
