`bird verify verifications check`

Usage

Code example

bird verify verifications check <code> [flags]

Description

Check a passcode a recipient submitted for their verification

Identify the verification by the same recipient it was started for (--phone-number and/or --email); no verification id is needed. A wrong, expired, or used code is reported in the result with "success": false and a "reason" — it is not an error.

Build the request from the <code> argument and flags, a JSON VerificationCheckRequest body via --body-file ("-" reads stdin), or both — an inline value overrides the matching body field. Run --example to print a ready-to-edit body, or --dry-run to print the resolved request without sending it.

Procedure

Step 2 of 3 of "Verify a recipient with a one-time passcode". Previous: bird verify verifications create. Next: bird verify verifications next-channel.

Examples

Code example

# print the body shape (no credentials needed)
bird verify verifications check --example

# the body it prints:

Code example

{
  "code": "123456",
  "to": {
    "phone_number": "+15551234567"
  }
}

Code example

# check a code sent over SMS
bird verify verifications check 123456 --phone-number +15551234567
