# Validating DNI's from Peru with Verifik's Advanced API Services

## **Verifik in Peru!**

In today's digital age, ensuring the authenticity of identification documents is paramount. Whether you're a business owner, a developer, or an individual, Verifik offers a comprehensive solution to validate DNI's from Peru seamlessly. Let's dive into the details.

### **1\. Basic DNI Validation**

The primary endpoint for DNI validation is:

```javascript
https://api.verifik.co/v2/pe/cedula
```

By providing two parameters, `documentType` and `documentNumber`, you can quickly retrieve basic information about the DNI holder. Here's a sample response:

```json
"data": {
    "documentType": "DNI",
    "documentNumber": "91721513",
    "fullName": "DELIA MARIA GONZALEZ MORALES",
    "firstName": "DELIA MARIA",
    "lastName": "GONZALEZ MORALES",
    "arrayName": ["DELIA", "MARIA", "GONZALEZ", "MORALES"]
}
```

### **2\. Detailed DNI Validation**

For a more comprehensive validation, Verifik offers an extended endpoint:

```javascript
https://api.verifik.co/v2/pe/cedula/extra
```

This endpoint provides a detailed overview of the DNI holder, including age, gender, civil status, and more. Here's a glimpse of the complete response:

```json
"data": {
    "documentType": "DNI",
    "documentNumber": "91721513",
    ...
    "age": 40,
    "gender": "MUJER",
    ...
    "homeDistrict": "EL AGUSTINO",
    ...
    "dateOfDeath": null
}
```

To query these endpoints, you can use the following `curl` command as an example:

```bash
curl --location 'https://verifik.app/v2/pe/cedula/extra?documentType=DNI&documentNumber=41821519' \
--header 'Authorization: JWT eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJjdW1iZXIiOiI0NDQ1NjQ4MTExIiwidiI6MSwicm9sZSI6ImNsaWVudCIsIkpXVFBo'
```

### **3\. OCR Extraction: A Game Changer**

Verifik's OCR endpoint revolutionizes the DNI validation process. By scanning the ID, you can extract essential information without manual input. The endpoint for this service is:

```javascript
https://api.verifik.co/v2/ocr/scan-prompt
```

```json
{
    "image": "https://cdn.verifik.co/ocr/samples/peru1.jpeg",
    "documentType": "DNI"    
}
```

Parameters include the image URL and the document type. The response provides a detailed extraction of the DNI's data:

```json
"data": {
    "documentType": "DNI",
    ...
    "OCRExtraction": {
        "documentNumber": "91721513",
        "firstName": "DELIA MARIA",
        ...
        "maritalStatus": "SOLTERA"
    },
    ...
}
```

### **Combining the Power of Both Services**

1. **Scan the ID**: Use the OCR endpoint to extract data from the DNI.
    
2. **Verify the Identity**: With the extracted `documentNumber`, use the DNI validation endpoints to authenticate the details.
    

By integrating both services, you can achieve a seamless and efficient DNI validation process, ensuring the highest level of accuracy and security.
